Sender: owner-freebsd-chat@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk In this week's Infoworld there is a review on Red Hat Linux. I wrote to the author (Eric Hammond) telling him about FreeBSD. He mentioned He recently did a review in which he included BSDI and also said there is another review in which BSDI will be included. I am familiar with FreeBSD Vs Linux discussions (and even a bit about Open BSD, Net BSD), but never really have seen much about BSDI. One of the things he wrote was: "I'm assuming that Internet Server is the commercial version of FreeBSD. Correct me if I'm wrong." By internet Server he is referring to BSDI. How different are these products (BSDI and FreeBSD)? I can prepare some little promo to send to him telling him about FreeBSD, but I want to answer his comment about BSDI vs FreeBSD. Thanks. Remove "" to send me email.
