The Linux penguin is all over, in all sizes, and > the *BSD community isn't able to spread their own daemon! This IS a shame! And again the answer is simple... As the MSNBC article pointed out, paraphrasing Matthew D. Fuller IIRC, the BSD userbase tends to act more mature in a lot of ways. One of those ways is the not needed stance of "my OS is the best, you fsckers should all use it!". We, I did at least, accepted the fact that my dad, and countless other clueless users, are better off with something like Windows 95 instead of Unix and the added complexity of file rights, ownership, etc... We also know that BSD _is_ good for a lot of stuff, we just not shout it out in everyone's ear.
