The book is at least two years old now, so I'm wondering if this is still true, and specifically, if it is true for FreeBSD. This isn't an urgent question, but I've done a search in the list archives and on google and haven't found an answer. No apps will die if I don't get an answer, it just relates to something I'm studying.
