In-Reply-To: <38C7B68F.3EF214B7@newsguy.com> Message-ID: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: TEXT/PLAIN; charset=US-ASCII Sender: owner-freebsd-mobile@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org heh. well, since this has turned into a testimonial thread, i would like to whole-heartedly thank the PAO guys for their hard work and for dilligently putting out english documentation for those of us that are mono-lingual. (in case any of them are subscribed here) I've been running PAO for over a year. Comments: 1. RT'ing the FM is still a good rule of thumb. 2. The PAO/3x install went very smoothly the first time. 3. As I do with the rest of the FreeBSD boxen I build, I purchased hardware around the tools that I use in my work. 4. there are those of us that utilize the fruits of the BSD community and are extremely greatful with what they provide. It is quite irritating when someone who evidently has not taken advantage of the availble docs makes a scene like this. 5. if I can't get something to work immediately, I do not immediately assume that the individuals who created it are idiots. I've learned more about the internals of FreeBSD by taking the time to do my research before asking questions--certainly before making comments as to the quality of the work. 6. Don't bitch, it's free. Show some respect. No one associated with PAO or *BSD owes you anything.
