<html><div>Its not much,</div> <div>BUT they did print it !</div> <div> <a href="http://www.performancecomputing.com/unixreview/backissu/9706adv.htm" EUDORA=AUTOURL>http://www.performancecomputing.com/unixreview/backissu/9706adv.htm</a></div>; <div>and it does highlight more than just the name.</div> <div>Being negative all the time about how the world treats freebsd doesn't achieve much.</div> <div>Maybe if Walnut Creek put a few lush adds in Unix Review extolling their distro of FreeBSD, they might suddenly find that freebsd is viable to advocate ;-)</div> <div>With most of their advertising revenue coming from smaller companies trying to break into the bigger market, it easy to see why NT is flavour of the year.</div> <div>They gave samba a nice thumbs up in a review against commercial smb servers. Samba is at least as important as freebsd in the rise of freeware, open standards and slowing NT's innevitable domination of the LAN-land. </div> <div>For those net heads, who think that a T3 is cool, samba pumps out data with a burst rate of about 8Mbyte a second, 12Mbyte if your on a pII400, ie hard drive speed.</div> <br> <div>All those in favour of 'positive advocacy' say AYE.</div> <BR> <font size=4>gdr computers</font></html> To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
