FreeBSD doesn't owe Apple anything, FreeBSD is happy and thankful towards Apple that they contributed code, but nothing more.

I also wonder how much code Apple has actually given back to FreeBSD, this page seems to claim that FreeBSD took ZFS, ULE scheduler, and DTrace support from Apple ... I was under the impression that these implementations were done by FreeBSD people.

Also, calling OpenBSD and NetBSD ``an idiosyncratic and lethargic technological backwater'' clearly proves his ignorance.

This guy is an idiot, /ignore
