But I started from RedHat 5.0 installed hardly on my hard-disk. Few days later I bought a linux account from the ISP and spent many days learning it. I started to IRC, /etc. I met venglin <venglin@lagoon.freebsd.org.pl> who used FreeBSD for a long time. I felt in love with FreeBSD. So use FreeBSD which is IMHO much better and of course more secure than linux. I hope that was an interesting story :-) -- zuntum:*:*:Tomasz Luchowski:http://lagoon.freebsd.org.pl/~zuntum zuntum@lagoon.freebsd.org.pl:@nemezis:@fenix To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
