Personally I moved away from Linux because of all the support problems 
it had, I've learned more about UNIX from the 1 1/2 years using FreeBSD 
then I ever did in the 5 years using Linux. This is mainly do to the 
excellent centralized and authoritative documentation available for the 
project. Also it really helped that FreeBSD is an Operating System and 
not just a kernel + 3rd party user & system tools hodgepodged together 
into a distribution.   Also FreeBSD nor Linux are good choices if your 
looking for support and the latest hardware. Being able to support 
yourself with minimal help from others is par for the course for any 
open source UNIX solution. Windows and other commercial solutions are 
available if you need hand holding. Good luck on your Linux odyssey, and 
your welcome back anytime as long as you don't keep burning your bridges 
and apologize to the FreeBSD team for calling them "Very stupid people" 
(Re: Supermicro Hardware and FreeBSD, 01/05/05@10:50), they would have 
helped you if you hadn't of said that.
