"the world" ... Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.ORG Morning all ... After working at a local University, I've started to "slide in" FreeBSD on various servers, advocating cost among other things (stability, resources, etc) ... One of the things we've been asked to do is "justify using changing our status quo of using Solaris for everything to doing a 'mixed shop'" ... and I haven't got a clue where to start as far as being 'unbiased' about it is concerned *sigh* Can ppl point me to *any* FreeBSD v. sites that are around the 'Net, and is there any one single site that would have most of these listed? I'd love to see pointers to E'Zine sites as well, that have reviews or articles on it. Basically, I want to make up one thick package to give to the higher-ups and say "read", with a summary of what is in it on top ... Thanks ... Marc G.
