I hate to say it but saying that FreeBSD might be better than Red Hat is
hardly flamebait or FUD. And it doesn't necessarily seem uninformed to me
(why would he say it's more enjoyable if he wasn't informed - i.e. hadn't
experienced it?).
(disclaimer - I don't work for any OS company, and I don't use FreeBSD,
although I've thought about it.)
