And a few REALLY serious mistakes, especially where FreeBSD
is concerned. For example:

" Being less PC-friendly then Linux and due to legal problems with AT&T,
at some point the FreeBSD movement lost momentum and later suffered also
from an internal split (OpenBSD)."

Like many writers who cover open source, he seems to go out of his way
to dismiss the BSDs, applying several of the bogus arguments in Raymond's
"Halloween memo."
