    Why was this modded down but the grandparent wasnt? The stuff described is true and well-documented.

    Or is it that the moderation here is blatantly biased and the mods dont want a true discussion of the facts?

    I've met plenty of good and bad *BSD and Linux users, but censoring the facts isn't going to get anyone anywhere.
