[-- Attachment #1 --] Hi Daniel, I have been using FreeBSD since '94. Trust me, it's been very hard at times for reasons beyond the scope of this message. Anyway, I started a company which builds servers and home user systems, all built upon FreeBSD. The reason I say that is _not_ to try to sell you anything. Rather to say that indeed, FreeBSD imho is the finest of OS's around. With many new ports for various things, I no longer (for some time now) have need for a windoze box, other than to test out file and print sharing. You can run linux programs with FreeBSD by installing /usr/ports/emulators/linux_base. Yes I truly advocate the use of FreeBSD and spreading the "good news" about FreeBSD's strengths. In actuallity, you have nothing to loose, but a lot to gain in tryingit out.
