All Im saying is that more people use linux because its getting better and they are responsive to their community. Im comparing Freebsd 2.2.8 to 3.3 and citing that there are more problems with 3.3 than 2.2.8 Linux 2.2 was a vast improvement over 2.0 whilst that clearly isnt the case here. > Unless they're running your drivers. I'm perfectly willing to accept YOUR DRIVERS might be less unstable on Linux than FreeBSD. "less unstable". Is that a technical term? If you are going to make totally ignorant statements at least try to get the semantics right.
