i'm glad your joking. after using NetBSD and 386BSD, i've been spoiled
into having a somewhat decent environment. (I'm sure FreeBSD is just as
good) This summer I started using NeXTStep for work, and it just makes
we want to puke. Sure all the interface stuff is sooooo cool, but the
underlying BSD is aweful. 

Well, maybe someone will do a free OpenStep implementation for the
*BSD's... Or is someone already?
