Re: [TCLUG:9416] MediaOne Roadrunner and Linux

I am limited by it in ways - such as the ability to use cdrecord (I have an
ATAPI burner).  Also, StarOffice and other products are only supported under
emulation.  Nobody makes native software for FreeBSD.  NFS under FreeBSD
stinks - although - after my install using Slackware and NFS - I don't think
it is much better under Linux - Coda might be.  Threading support under
FreeBSD stinks - which really kills MySQL.

On the plus side - the FreeBSD ports system is awesome!!!
