Hi,

Now I don't want to start a flameware over this, and I know that asking this
question about Linux gets you nowhere in general, but here goes....

With all this talk about NetBSD, just wondering if anyone can tell me the
major differences between FreeBSD and NetBSD?  I am guessing that they are
similar to linux distributions (same source, different system approach), but
am not really sure...

Can anyone shed a little light?
Also, Jason, why NetBSD instead of FreeBSD?

Cheers.
Anthony
