Look at 'big evil corporations' like apple.  They did in a year
with mach what the FSF/GNU wants to do with HURD and still cant (to
quote stallman 'its really hard' while explaining why after 10
years HURD still doesnt exist).  Apple was able to do this largely
because they paid people to do it.  That money had to come from
somewhere.  While apple did release darwin (the mach microkernel+
BSD components - but no mac components so largely not highly
useful) under a license even the FSF claims is 'free'.  Had it not
been for the 'big evil corporations' that would not have existed at
all.

You're fairly off base with that paragraph.

you're fairly stupid.  I wasnt giving a history lesson I was talking
about the fact that both apple and FSF tried to do the same thing.
Apple did it in about a year (from the time mach actually became
available to use the way it is) and FSF is stil trying and stallman is
still whining that "its really hard" and that is why he cant get hurd
done.

You are the one who is fairly stupid. Apple took Mach, BSD and X and got
them to talk to each other. The FSF, have taken Mach and are attempting
to write another BSD.

Thank you for repeating me and leaving out the fact that FSF *cant* geti
t to work, to quote stallman on the problem "its relaly hard" and that
is why they cant get it working.  My whole point was that apple *did*
it.

You have so eloquently proven my point about your intelligence.

For the last time, Apple took a ready written O/S in FreeBSD, the FSF
are doing effectively a full rewrite of FreeBSD. A year my arse. Few
people are working on Hurd where as with *BSD and Linux they are a cast
of thousands.
