Good question. Because of the perspective many FreeBSD fans (people who like and use FreeBSD) have toward *NIX OS's. You said it well: > "Modern" Linux distributions don't appeal very much to me, because > they are messy: Missing manpages, partially ununderstandable file > system hierarchy layout, untidy source code. These are things, I'm guessing, that the casual Linux user may not appreciate. Someone who has a great deal of experience with both FreeBSD and various Linux distributions, however, probably would appreciate these things. If I were to poll a sample of individuals who only have experience with, say, Windows and Linux, then the responses would likely represent opinions formed upon a wholly different set of criteria. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
