While we've discussed this matter, and in principle we're in agreement, you should leave Jeremy to make up his mind himself. Maybe he's just trying to get used to the system. FreeBSD 3.0 is maybe not as stable in some areas as 2.2.7, but it's not going to panic every two days either. Jeremy, 3.0 is a "be careful" release. Don't set up large web or ftp servers with it. But it contains a number of new features, and if you're used to Microsoft, you'll be astounded how reliable it is.
