FreeBSD is a great operating system if you would like to try it. However, changing operating systems is not something you should because you don't like the attitudes of some people that use your current operating system. No matter which camp you're in; Linux, BSD, Mac, {Insert other favorite OS here} or Windows (God forbid); you will find people that you like and people that you don't like. FreeBSD is an operating system, not a religion. Let us not make negative statements about the people in other communities. You do not want to sink to the same level as the people that you speak about. -- greg
