"FreeBSD, a UNIX-like system similar to the Linux operating system, was
used to run the front-end Web servers that
handled login, Microsoft Outlook® Express, and Web-based content
delivery tasks"
Is it just me or is this statement completely incorrect? A "Unix-like
system" I always thought It was UNIX. Similar to Linux? I always
believed that Linux was well, anything but UNIX.
I also fail to see any similarities between FreeBSD and Linux.
Maybe they should have said: "FreeBSD, an advanced BSD UNIX operating
system, which you should not confuse with the silly penguin warez
available, was used to run the front-end Web servers that handled login,
Microsoft Outlook® Express, and Web-based content delivery tasks. We
decided that because we leech all the information that passes though
these servers anyway, that we may as well use M$ Windows 2000 server, a
patched yet still buggy version of Windows 3.1. Everyone expects
Mircosoft products to be unstable and they pay us to be beta testers so
why break the trend.
