> Thought the www page may be of interest; With due deference to Martin, I've never cared for this comparison very much. It's too haphazard in its coverage, does not compare the relative merits of each OS in a structured fashion (leaping instead from disassociated topic to disassociated topic to the general confusion of the reader) and it's far too biased towards the perspective of a research guy with specific interests which probably overlap with less than 1% of the existing *BSD user base. Unfortunately, there are few other people willing to sit down and craft such comparisons so it's all that's available right now. If we could get someone disconnected from either camp to do an out-of-box evaluation of the systems, using both for several months with an entirely fresh perspective and writing up their general experiences with using the systems, that would indeed be valuable.
