no idea how large they are, but definitely better than google.

what they run shouldn't be important, only net effect counts.

if i would have choice of 2 service providers (any service) one running 
FreeBSD other windows vista, but the latter giving better service,
i would choose the latter...


what is most strange are FreeBSD admins from that list , many of them 
really good, unable to just create e-mails for themselves on one of their
servers, but using gmail.

it's just... stupid.
