Similar to "Windows NT 4.0" as a professional Windows. "Windows 2008" vs Vista I read the magazine article title as "to everyone who wants a linux/unix like system, FreeBSD is the professional choice" It's all interpreted to the reader... however typing "Debian" when being sent to a FreeBSD list is completely misdirected, I would have ignored it if it wasn't for the fact that there were so many responses to this thread. _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[email protected]"
