No need for Windows propaganda here. We have had enough of this already. Thanks. By the way, for those who tried FreeBSD and found it "too much", there is another, way better alternative: OS X Someone else does the packaging, testing etc. for you and you still don't run Windows :) This, of course, if the person, unlike you, does not ignore the advice to use PC-BSD. The same FreeBSD, with someone else taking care of watching the ports tree, configuring, compiling, packaging etc. DanielReceived on Wed Jun 06 2012 - 04:46:32 UTC
