Yeah.
Despite having gotten some heat, probably justifiable, from several
corners, I have a page with a small collection of mail flung across
-hackers and -questions concerning FreeBSD vs. Linux mainly, with a few
reference to other free OS's.
<disclaimer>
I am not in any way trying to evangelize one over the other, though I do
prefer FreeBSD; this is just an archive of the more (I thought)
intelligent statements; excluding things like 'blah is better because I
said so' and the like. I put up mails as they come in, and if I find a
long thread of FreeBSD vs WinNT or something of the like, I'll post them
too. I just post these because it seems fairly common for people to ask
'which is better, which should I go with'. I figured that instead of
starting big blood feuds everyitme with more people flaming each other, we
could just point them to this page, and let them read and figure it out
themselves. I'm always open to mroe suggestions or posts, if anyone feels
like it.

HERE'S A THOUGHT!!!!!!!!!!
Why don't we create a miling list to compare FreeBSD vs. Linux vs.
Solaris, vs. SCO vs. 95 vs. NT vs. blah blah blah.

Just a thought...
