I can't decide whether this is frightening or just silly. FreeBSD is an
operating system. The idea that someone 'shouldn't' use itbecause they
think a feature or two could be more simply implemented or more accessibly
documented is absurd. It's also bad for FreeBSD, and it's antithetical to
the notion of an open-source project. And is there anything more
wrongheaded than a Unix freak saying "Well if you want something simple to
use, then go back to Windows"? Simplicity is not a sign of lameness. LACK
of simplicity is a sign of lameness, and laziness, and technical bigotry.

And what's such an anti-FreeBSD-documentation sentiment doing on the
FreeBSD documenation list, anyway?

Sheesh.
Chris
