Well, I don't have much experience w/ Linux directly, but I do have access
to a linux machine here.
plus, I've been saving all the FreeBSD vs Linux mails that have come
through the questions list lately; I have a link to them off my home page,
and I can always ... ahem... 'nudge' the results.  Although, comparing
FreeBSD to Linux, I don't think the results would even NEED nudging...
