I love FreeBSD. I really have nothing interesting to say in my comment here except that I was surprised to NOT see a bunch of other HN fans glowing about it.

I love FreeBSD. I really have nothing interesting to say in my comment here except that I was surprised to NOT see a bunch of other HN fans glowing about it. I spent a good 1-2 years each with SuSE, Debian, OpenBSD, FreeBSD, Solaris, and Ubuntu - but FreeBSD is the one I keep coming back to as my favorite server OS. Shame it doesn't play well with Xen. But those of you with a Mac and VMWare Fusion can install it and play around to get to know it. It's really well-done. http://www.freebsd.org/handbook http://www.freebsd.org/handbook tells all.
