I would have entitled it Linux AND BSD This article is really about the objective difference between linux and BSD. It is not a rant in the form B > L or B < L it is much more about the difference in a lot of direction. I personally find it much more an help to guide people to come and as much as to stay away. I am a former user of linux (that I used to like) and I am now using freeBSD. I switched without love or hate. I just was on linux to have video card and latest hardware support, and I am on freeBSD to have the ports, stability and easy upgrading. I did it after years of experiences enabling me to build the information about the different fit use case of both OSes. Having this summed up in 10 pages will spare people a lot of time in deciding. And I think it is as important to have people come to BSD as to not delude them in coming for wrong reasons: disgruntled users are as much a pain that rigorous contributors are a gift. So information to make choice, especially when they are not structured as an aggressive comparison are very welcomed. The author should be praised.
