The letter shows a heavy bias toward Linux and makes some incorrect statements about FreeBSD. We should send feedback urging them to be less Linux-centric, mention the other *BSDs, correct the information on FreeBSD, and include commercial OSes (such as BSDI, QNX, BeOS, etc.) as well as just the free ones as alternatives to Microsoft's products.
