Data.com on FreeBSD 3.3

Posted by Hemos on from the nice-coverage dept.

Data.com has got an interesting article about FreeBSD. Very nice coverage of FreeBSD 3.3, essentially calling it a very robust and ready OS for Internet/Intranet deployment.

    Well, that about sums this article up. Great to see *BSD in the press, but a more informed article would be nice...
