I am curious to learn how BSD Unix stacks up against the CMU Mach and
GNU Hurd combination.  Is the BSD kernel as technically advanced as the
Mach kernel?  Is BSD as portable as Mach and Hurd?  Is it fair to use
BSD make instead of GNU make?  Please reply directly to me.  I will
summarize.  -David-
