As far as I can see, all that has is griping about the price.  What about 
performance/power/versatility/support/blah, independant of price?
I'm trying to convince someone who's been using BSDi for a long time, and 
is now considering FreeBSD because of the price hike.  If I can explain 
some good examples of why FreeBSD would be better from a technical 
standpoint, then he will go for it.  He is presently a professor here at 
Westminster, and next year at Goucher, so it could be a plus for FreeBSD 
in the University category.
Just a thought...
