Unless you are running a very heavily loaded gateway or a big ftp archive
the Linux networking these days is pretty much rock solid. I'd say its
about level with the patched Solaris 2.3 networking....

The good thing is whichever oif Linux 1.00 pre-release or NetBSD 0.9 you
play with you'll get a very good, very cheap OS.

I re4fuse to get into any X is better than Y arguments - try them both
and enjoy...
