I mean I understand the need to know if you are developing stuff, but did you ask the same questions of Window's OS's, Solaris, etc... If you are just using the system, why would you care. A programming language is in no way a guage of how the OS will perform. If the OS does what you need it todo, then it could have been programmed in ALGOL, PL1, COBOL, ASM, Pascal, FORTRAN, Lisp, and (I forget the rest of the languages I have run into in the past. Rest assured it is a long list). Just wondering what would make a person pose such a question, Harold ----- Original Message ----- From: shannon stees To: Sent: Monday, May 08, 2000 11:45 AM Subject: researching FreeBSD > Forgive me for being uninformed, but I'm researching FreeBSD and I have a > question that I have not found a specific answer for through searching the > net.
