In other words, your answer seems to be: "We don't want users who like FreeBSD, but want to use it on a laptop. FreeBSD should never be used on a laptop." I'd say I can safely ignore you, knowing that's your attitude, if it weren't for the fact that a lot of other people won't know that down the line, and you may permanently damage the FreeBSD project by chasing off potential contributors. Is there any way I can get you to stop being such a contentious trojan horse of an enemy to the FreeBSD project? --=20 Chad Perrin [ content licensed OWL: http://owl.apotheon.org ] They always say that when life gives you lemons you should make lemonade.= =20 I always wonder -- isn't the lemonade going to suck if life doesn't give you any sugar? --gr/z0/N6AeWAPJVB Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.9 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAklEFZcACgkQ9mn/Pj01uKXR/gCfWMf2uqLYDJ0HbxoE+9awEFjA huQAoMSLg8f6xdd6lzdbkeahNg3+lc14 =0u5R -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --gr/z0/N6AeWAPJVB--
