The above reply, and the replies to it, were great! I don't hang around
many places that get angry (irritated?) diatribes. Most of the online
discussions I read are overly polite, even. This was a great rant. It just
went on and on. It brought up solid points the author was willing to
defend. The author was well challenged on many of those points. Discussion
ensued. Name-calling and other wastes-of-time did not. (Well, aside from
the PowerBook beats father quip :D )
In conclusion, the conduct of everone on this list was fantastic. People
discussed topics they care about without losing their sense of humor.
Technical merits were both solid theoretical and first-hand experience.
This just goes to show why the FBSD group is so fun to be around.
I will now stop wasting your time. :)
