Actually, in my experience, I've heard more Linux people dissing on BSD
and other Unices and more BSD people accepting and even using both Linux
and BSD together.  At lot of Linux people seem to get a big head about
their OS and kernel.  (A lot != high percentage)  I noticed this back
when all I was was a linux guy, but I was not one to dis on other
unices.

Also, I do like both a lot and see advantages in both.

P.S.  I am also a born-again christian and have never thought anything
bad of beastie, it's not a demon after all.  I don't think it should be
changed.

I sense much NT in you.
NT leads to Bluescreen.
Bluescreen leads to downtime.
Downtime leads to suffering.
NT is the path to the darkside.
Powerful Unix is.
