It's not about operating systems; it's about terabyte_pete, the original poster who initiated this "message". Terabyte_pete, or Peter Daigle as some know him, has been trolling several other mailing lists for a while (NetBSD, MozillaZine, etc.), most recently with DragonFlyBSD. He seems to be on a self-proclaimed warpath to make open-source products to work the way Microsoft's products work, and has a particularly soft spot for Windows 95. Interestingly enough, if you take a look at his company's website (and I use the word "website" rather loosely), www.neptuneholographics.com, he claims that the site is powered by DragonFlyBSD and Wine. It is curious that, although his business runs on OSS, he finds it entertaining to spew infantile verbal excrement at the very people who help his business run. If you are located anywhere close to Grover Beach, California, please feel free to drop by his office and let him know how much we appreciate his pseudo-intellectual "analyses" of operating systems. His office is just off the 101, between 4th Street and Oak Park Blvd. SC
