Why not trying other OSes?!
Good point - LiLux as in "Libre Luxembourg" is not only about
(GNU/)Linux, but about all Free and Open Source Software.
Thus, a FreeBSD (or NetBSD, or OpenBSD) announcement is
perfectly on-topic here. We won't even bite if general UNIX
questions come (except maybe if it's about SCO ;-)), i.e.
regarding Solaris, AIX, IRIX etc - we as a group may only be
less experienced there.
As for remaining on-topic: how well does FreeBSD do on SMP
systems, what's the availability of drivers like for (as yet)
less common platforms such as AMD64 and associated hardware?
It's been ages since I've tried FreeBSD, so I'm really
interested, especially since I'm eyeing a new box with lots
of hard disk space...
Greets & TIA, Eric
