Hello,

	I've been around trying to convert Linux users to FreeBSD.  It seems
that the primary objection to FreeBSD is that their software won't run.
 I explain to them about the Linux, SVR4, and IBNSC2 ABIs. Their next
argument is what about RPMs?  I explain the package system and ports
system to them.  It seems that many Linux users don't know a whole lot
about FreeBSD.  I say we go on a campain to educate them.
