I catch enough shit about this when I post semi-unrelated topics ;). In more on-topic discussion, when Linux (indeed, users from other OSes) ask some of the ``major differences'' between Product X and FreeBSD, what are some of the answers you give other than the license and the fact that BSD is a complete system instead of just a kernel? I'm sure there are many original things out there that people have come across, either in their conversion process or while ``converting others'' -- I'm attempting to improve my arsenal as it were. Kind regards, Devon H. O'Dell
