I wrote the Linux.com folks complaining about how badly done that=20 comparison was, and recieved this response within a few minutes: ------------ I'm very sorry the 'OS Comparisons' article prompted the reaction it did. We have had a number of readers react strongly to the portrayal of *BSD in Phil Hughes' article. When racing to build content on Linux.com, we solicited articles from a number of sources; we did not = try to promote any agenda in our content, only offer an unbiased look at = Linux from as many perspectives as possible. VA Research did not in any way influence the specifics of the content on Linux.com and will not do so = in the future.=20 Clearly, we need to revisit the 'OS Comparisons' document. More=20 than likely, we will revise the article and include a footnote = addressing=20 your concerns and the concers of others in the UNIX community. I very=20 much hope that you will revisit Linux.com and pardon our oversight.
