Me, organize? Lines: 26 Message-ID: <4q6k4s$31o_018@mypc.neosoft.com> NNTP-Posting-Host: 206.27.165.132 X-Newsreader: News Xpress 2.0 Beta #1 Several days ago, in the heat of frustration after installing FreeBSD for the first time on my system (2.1) and not being able to get my CD-ROM to work, I rather hastily posted a few rather nasty remarks about FreeBSD. I would like to sincerely apologize to anyone whom I may have offended. Please understand that the intent of these remarks was not to insult or injure anyone on the FreeBSD team, all of whom I have the greatest admiration and respect for. I was just upset and blowing off steam. Stupid of me. Not the sort of thing I normally do, and certainly not something I'm proud of. The real culprit behind the problems I was having was my own impatience. I got the package from Walnut Creek and wanted it to work NOW! I should have known better. FreeBSD is a very fine piece of work and, now that I've straightened out my problems with the CD-ROM, one that I'm enjoying immensely. Please try to forgive my earlier rudeness. It's really quite embarrassing. Sincerely, Conrad Sabatier -- Conrad Sabatier -- http://www.neosoft.com/~conrads/
