Yeh, but this is a lot more exciting that listening to the news about
OJ...  I guess that we all have to accept that FreeBSD users and NetBSD users
and Linux users all have loyalty.  That is good and bad -- it is just best
that all of us keep our eyes open and have open minds.  It is best not
to take opinion personally (but that is sometimes hard.)  I trust that
all of us take our positions as business decisions and just do the best
that we can.  Daniel, you are right, but don't give up on discussing
opinion on the net.  IMHO (and some say that I am not humble :-)), it is
good to air ideas and opinion as long as it does not get out of hand...
(My OS is better than yours anyway :-), nyah...)
