It's "Vi IMproved" because it's a vi clone with extra features. Not with incompatible commands.
Anyway, I normally use:q! or:wq to quit. Didn't even know about Ctrl+ ZZ. And I also don't usually use x to delete a character also, I use the Delete key (and Backspace if I'm in the edit mode).
JRE/JDK has been available for some GNU/Linux distributions for a while, and some distributions ship it already (like Conectiva and Slackware).
Corel's.NET implementation won't be free. That is, only FreeBSD users will be able to choose to be controlled by a Microsoft division. If you value your freedom, you should wait for Mono or Portable.NET, both of which will run on FreeBSD.
I'm sorry, but RMS has nothing against bringing GNOME and free software to users of non-free systems. You made that up. He doesn't mention Fink or Mac OS X in none of his answers.
He's problem is with promoting non-free (and non-GNOME, btw) software.
Anyway, you should be comparing FreeBSD to a GNU/Linux distribution, not to the kernel. For example, Debian has stable, testing and unstable trees. Just like FreeBSD.
The Galeon GUI itself doesn't use XUL. But Galeon uses Gecko for rendering, so...
Anyway, Konqueror is not much faster anyway, if at all. On my system it takes more time only to load kdeinit than to load Galeon. YMMV.
BTW, loading the GUI from a text file isn't exactly what happens. XUL is similiar to libglade and applications using libglade are just as fast as applications that don't.
This is either a marketing strategy to sell stock actions or their NT4[1] database (you know, the one that keeps all the information about everyone's computers and families) crashed and they still haven't recovered it.
1. Of course, they don't trust their latest products with it.
The page mentions Debian GNU/Linux as Debian Linux. That is as wrong as calling "Red Hat Linux" "Red Hat GNU/Linux".
Btw, " perhaps the purest form of the ideals that started the Linux development." That's wrong, Linux was started in 1991 but the FSF was started in 1984. The ideals of free software existed before that, though, when all the software was free.

Mostly, dolphins want to eat fishes and have sex
And chastity because, well, who's going to date a marine biologist? The smell alone tends to dissuade a large proportion of the opposite sex.
But it certainly attracts the dolphins.
Yes, but they control people.
I'd rather work in a cubicle.
The third release candidate (rc3) is going to be released very soon. Read here.
But I'd advise you not to worry about "1.0". The current release is very stable, you can use it already, no fear.
Well, that's very insightful. You're abosolutely correct.

Mono and Portable.NET will work on FreeBSD. And, unlike Jave, it's free software.

Using GCC 3.1 to build your applications will help.
Right now, you can install Red Hat's rawhide distribution to get KDE 3 built with a snapshot of GCC 3.1.
That's not a good way to make a balanced human being.
I hope he doesn't ask you for advice, because what you're doing certainly doesn't seem to be working out.
BTW, that picture is from 2 years ago.
Marcelo is not Italian, he was born in Brazil.
FastTrack owns the code, so they can't distribute it under an open-source license.
This would have been funny if RMS had actually claimed credit on inventing a GUI.

I apologize for a second reply to the same post.

Because FreeBSD is an operating system distribution and Linux is only the kernel of an operating system.

Or even "General Public Licensed Operating System".
There are people in there who live just like you and me. The other 99% live like CNN showed.
You have to remember that in poor countries the social differences are greater than in developed countries.
You can't even spell Conectiva yet you feel you're qualified to call them "crap and liars".
All of the daemons are ported, and the security is great.
And the same holds true for GNU/Linux.
I know what you mean. He even acts as if he created the packages, when the only thing he did was ported them.
Sure, give credit where its due. But tell me something: do you know who is responsible for porting Linux to CRIS?
I'd rather be an ignorant asking the wrong questions than a nerd yelling at people "go read the manual, stop wasting my time, blah blah blah".
He wants to be elected to ensure GNOME remains a free desktop. For those who share this vision, RMS will do a lot for GNOME.
I find this very important and significant to GNOME and I hope he gets elected.
