How does performance compare? Axil's homepage advocates NT. I haven't seen Richard's. BTW, Richard, if Axil wanted to donate one of these systems (or even an 803) to the FreeBSD project, we would make sure that FreeBSD *always* ran properly on it. 8) More seriously, would you like some "Powered by FreeBSD" stickers to put on the system? Perhaps a stuffed Daemon to sit on top? Thanks for sharing your results; it's very encouraging to hear these sort of results! -- \\ Sometimes you're ahead, \\ Mike Smith \\ sometimes you're behind. \\ mike@smith.net.au \\ The race is long, and in the \\ msmith@freebsd.org \\ end it's only with yourself. \\ msmith@cdrom.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-current" in the body of the message
