This is what really chaps my hide, so to speak. This transition needed to be made for a couple of years now. I found some spare time and did it. Now people are crawling out of the woodwork complaining that they don't like the color of the bikeshed. Tough turnips! The guy who gets paid to maintain these machines *wants* FreeBSD. In my tiny non-manager mind, that's reason enough for me... David p.s. Thanks everyone for all the feedback.
