Since we are discussing the relative merits and strengths of each system.. Linux has much better java support, which is actually a "killer app" for many companies. Most companies that want to use java are better off using linux in that role. There are also some applications which are tricky to get running on FreeBSD, eg Oracle. Though most places that run oracle probably don't use linux either ;) I'm not too familiar with Linux apps overall though, and most of them run fine under FreeBSD. > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org > with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message > > To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-advocacy" in the body of the message
