This is a lot like trying to convince a jew that theres nothing wrong with
cheeseburgers. Open source has its place, but its not going to take over
the world. Deal with it.
FreeBSD is not even better than Windows out of the box, because you need an
experienced unix person to set up the box. It doesnt matter if its better,
because you can't FIND experienced unix people. The economics of open
source will not allow it to dominate, because there arent enough good
programmers to make it work.
Im arguing with a guy from "poohsticks.org". What am i thinking? lol
