over the bickering between the Linux and FreeBSD contingents.
That kind of thing is part of the reason Windoze owns as
much of the matket as it does. I realize nobody could
predict the way it would take off, but when MS first started
to own the desktop, the *users* of UNIX should have started
cooperating. But instead, they went along with the vendor
factions, and Windoze won.
Here's an analogy for you:
Linux = DOS
FreeBSD = CP/M
Therefore, Linux will come to dominate the world. So don't worry.
