We can >assume number one, but if #2 is true, we WILL lose. Why do you assume that? Unless you define "lose" as Bill Gates does -- that is, less than 100% market share -- FreeBSD has a lot to gain.

It pains me to see FreeBSD as a "sleeper" product when it's so much more stable and reliable than most Linux systems I've encountered. --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-chat" in the body of the message
