Especially given that nobody in their right mind would chose EXT2FS over the 4.4 FFS code. Believe me, I've used both. As far as iBCS2 stuff is concerned, we're not running Corel Draw yet but the emulation is pretty good and getting better. I think the original really wanted more to score points off of FreeBSD than he wanted a serious comparison. Ignore posts like this - Linux advocates should RUN LINUX! There's no reason why I'd suggest that anyone with an investment in Linux should cross over - what would be the point? If Linux works for you - GREAT! Keep using Linux! None of us have any axes to grind WRT Linux vs FreeBSD and we're perfectly happy to see folks running either one, really! Jordan
