I'm pretty much in the same boat as Shannon here. Maybe not as advanced in Linux, but there was just something in Linux that I felt was off. I've been telling people I've never said I love an OS before, but I love FreeBSD. As for learning curve? What learning curve? :P I pretty much just threw myself in and have been figuring stuff out for myself. Most importantly, it's been a FUN learning experience. -B clayton rollins wrote: > > Hi Catlord, > >> On Tue, 13 May 2003 19:16:39 -0700 (PDT) RexFelis >> <catlord17@yahoo.com> wrote: >> >> >> Hi, everyone! >> >> I have been a lurker for quite some time, with a >> few questions to the -questions mailing list here >> and there.
