Is there a networking joke I'm missing?

Yes, you could say that. The Internet is a network.

I don't want to start a holy war here, but what is the deal with you Unbuntu fanatics? I've been sitting here at my freelance gig in front of a PC (a Dell Inspiron 1420 w/4 GB of RAM) for about 20 minutes now while it attempts to copy a 1.7 GB file from one folder on the hard drive to another folder. 20 minutes. At home, on my Mac Pro running 10.5.6, which by all standards should be a lot more expensive than this Dell, the same operation would take about 2 minutes. If that.

In addition, during this file transfer, Opera will not work. And everything else has ground to a halt. Even GEdit is straining to keep up as I type this.

I won't bore you with the laundry list of other problems that I've encountered while working on various Linuxen, but suffice it to say there have been many, not the least of which is I've never seen an Ubuntu install that has run faster than its OS X counterpart, despite Linux's open-source architecture. My Mac mini with 256 megs of ram runs faster than this dual-core machine at times. From a productivity standpoint, I don't get how people can claim that Linux is a superior OS.

Linux addicts, flame me if you'd like, but I'd rather hear some intelligent reasons why anyone would choose to use a Linux over the faster, more expensive, more stable system.

That's how it's meant to be pronounced. Leave it to Americans to not being able to pronounce anything right, ever.

Ubuntu is not representative of all Linux distributions. Try something else, don't follow the herd.Oh wait, your a mac user ;)

FreeBSD is not more expensive than Linux.

FreeBSD is not more expensive than Linux.

It is, however, the superior web serving platform. Amirite?

It's also superior for pretty much everything else.
Except screen savers that do cute things when your computer falls off your desk... but if that happens often you probably don't care how stable or fast it is.

One word, adobe flash support.

You do have a point, but it's essential for youtube and youtube-like interface porn websites.

It's not. It's trivial to extract the raw video URL, and you can play it with any decent player, with proper fullscreen and seeking support, and at half the CPU cost¹. A correct setup will open a video with just one click, so it's not inconvenient either.

[sup]1 Efficient video playback is possible using Flash, but it requires competent WEB DEVELOPERS and a NON-ENTERPRISE mentality.

Flash runs better on FreeBSD than it does on any other operating system.

>>54
It has better hardware support than linux, especially for laptops.

But can it run my obscure half-scanner/half-toaster from Korea?

For that you want NetBSD.
I didn't know http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2103/2709034589_693dc136b6_o.jpg could mate with http://pnmedia.gamespy.com/screenshots/phl/90988431.jpg, but I'm sure NetBSD will run on the result.

It is open-source, therefore you must write the device yourself instead of bitching, you ungrateful twat.
