OK, I'll buy that the post was a bit much - my point was just that 
comparisons of flavors of UNIX seem, IMHO to be pointless, and flinging 
accusations of FUD are even more pointless. You can make just about any 
flavor of UNIX (unless it's under serious development, or seriously flawed) 
about as stable and secure as any other. Unlike comparisons of very different 
OSes (Windows vs Unix vs MacOS), comparisons of UNIX seem, to me, to come 
down to personal preference. (Although, many would argue the same for the 
other comparisons as well). 

Let's save the FUD accusations for much more serious matters.
