All this seems like a moot freebsd-chat communication undeserving not for hackers@

Would make for a perfect troll though . . . as there are no sound facts anywhere within the original message.

Personally if I was a shareholder and i seen that original message did just get someone else to do the job that would be more adequate to evaluate OS solutions properly and a timely manner.
