Christ, 4 came out in Dec 2007 -took them long enough, you think? Did the two remaining guys finally decide to get their shit together and shove this turd out the door?
It's really sad, this used to be my favorite OS -but now days it's lagging far, far too behind. It's a truly sad day when even OpenBSD has better hardware support than you do.
I hate to say it, but it looks like Chris Hunnan was right -NetBSD has slid away into irrelevance. You guys had an awesome OS going on for a long time there -but anyone with half a brain has migrated to FreeBSD (or OpenBSD if they're masochistic enough to deal with Theo Dee Rat and his entourage of flaming turds).
NetBSD -no longer dying, but dead.
Look, it is fine if you like your NetBSD, but you don't have to spread your malicious misinformation about OpenBSD.
OpenBSD used to charge for proprietary CD images with artwork and songs to fund the project. But the source has always been free and available for free under a free BSD license.
A net install iso has been always available.
OpenBSD is not only behind OpenSSH, and many other GNU-free tools, but also many of the BSD drivers, and actually campaigns against binary blobs.
4-clause till yesterday BSD is hardly freer than that.
10 little-endian boys went out to dine, a big-endian carp ate one, and then there were -246.
You jus trollin now nigger.
Go shoot yourself, you fucking moron.
