Please, forward this letter to the the correct delivery. I haven't the=20 strenght necessary to walk online across the mailgroups' environment. Fee= l=20 free of copying what you like of the following content, simply making men= tion=20 of my name. If at NASA nobody has realized, rockets fitting the main vehicle's belly = could=20 damage its thermal insulation, there's nothing strange they have adopted = a=20 LINUX based GNU system instead of a BSD-GNU one. You know, SATURNO V was the most perfect rocket engine ever designed, as = for=20 vertical take-off. Advanced vehicles with wings, must take off from gravi= ty=20 following a spiral path: at the moment, it could be too much expensive,=20 therefore they have decided to save some MONEY taking off vertically with= =20 that stuff. I admit I'm running a penguin now, just because I haven't tried to set up= my=20 dad's ISDN with BSD. I like to run my 4.6 'AMNESIAC' BSD like a dream for= my=20 future, I'm trying it step-by-step. Many people don't feel obvious the=20 hierarchical system of physical-slices and subordinated BSD partitions, b= ut=20 it has kept me immediately at home. If anybody likes to create custom BSD= =20 partitions, the system keeps the disc safe by means of the physical slice= s'=20 creation. Who could ask more... Who cares of the life of common computer users? Mr. Gates cares of them f= or=20 money, Linux distributors nothing at all - except of the ones which are g= oing=20 bankrupt, like Mandrake, the ones very cautious like Slackware, the ones=20 simply experimental like all of the Sorcery-like. It isn't necessary to ask a genius, to realize Linux' success is made by = a=20 strong industry help for compiling a lot of kernels, for the most part of= the=20 hardware architectures. We know the same job could be done with a traditi= onal=20 kernel like BSD's one. Who will be the next Mr. Gates? I hope the DAEMON will fuck them all. Please, keep BSD clear of alien compression tools like 'rpm' or 'deb'. We= must=20 adopt the universal, common way of the traditional 'tar' and 'tar.gz'=20 compression methods. I also hope we'll not need stuff like 'linuxulator' = any=20 longer. Forgive me for my speech and for my quasi-english.
