  1. Re:My experiences on Benchmarks of *BSD, Linux, and Solaris at LinuxTag · · Score: 1

    There is a native FreeBSD Netscape, no Linux emulation required. Usually, Linux emulation is needed for things like games.

    You get a really good description if you're installing ports, by using these listings.

    You probably haven't compiled a custom kernel yet. Do it. Instructions are in the handbook. It'll speed up your boot time quite a bit.

    I don't use GNOME :)

  2. Tidbit from the brief on Compressed Beyond Recognition: An MP3 Compendium · · Score: 1

    At one point in the brief, the judge writes:

    Every user of Napster must download Napster's proprietary software, must connect to one of Napster's servers to use the service, must use Napster's search functions in order to locate files to download, and must be hooked up to Napster to initiate the downloading process.

    Gee, I guess I haven't been using Napster, because I use an open-source client. :)
