NOT another Linux vs BSD thread
Hi, guys and girls
I'm NOT going to start a new thread about comparing Linux and BSD as I wrote in the title, but instead I would like to ask you a few questions about your opinion. /* Just to point out first, I'm a BSD user and I'm proud of it! */ So here are the questions... 1. Why do you think Linux got so much popularity? And by that I mean thing like that - why do not most of the manufactures/vendors do not provide drivers for their hardware for BSD also, most of them concentrate on Linux (excluding Nvidia for example and ATI which I hope will make us happy with an open source driver soon) 2. Why does not Adobe make our lives a bit easier and give us a native Flash player, instead of running it under Linux emulation? 3. Most of the Linux guys which I had a discussion with haven't even heard of BSD - isn't this a constricted outlook? 4. And why the heck I'm even talking about Linux, when I have a real UNIX? Cheers, DNAeon
