I understand. It takes years to get to know FreeBSD. I thought about it for 20 years and I dived in (landing on my a**) about 10 years ago. It took millions of minds to biuld it. I been to hell and back, now I got a clue.
He don’t change much, even for us, because he knows he's a oldy but goodie. Anyway, if you still love Windows-XP as I do, just put it in a VM with FreeBSD as host. FreeBSD with PF will be his best friend ever. If you love Fedora-12, (the only one that was as fast as XP) well it don’t work anymore. It had a trick in it (mbr/hdd smarts) to keep it from running as a virtual machine inside Virtualbox and more. It ran Gnome-2 and all apts faster then a bat-out-of-hell and XP.
Other than those few, the desktop been dying ever since (but the youngest will never know it). The owners decided the next generation of power users will only be using webtop, that function like a smart-phones or tablets. Now you to got to hit 6 buttons or make many swipes to do what you use to do with a single click. Now you have to drill down into the system for every single thing you need to do. And to think people got the nerve to complain about FreeBSD mate-desktop functionally. It is BETTER than that, and you can build upon it. But not Gnome-3 or Windows. Anyway, the fact was they knew that the Webtop will dominate the entire industry and XP or Fedora types can’t do the job. That why you now have Gnome-3 and Winodows-10. They are ready for action, but they are a soooooo boring. But the youngsters will think it’s a gift. But FreeBSD has all of that already, a taste of boring with PF to boot. If some one is trying, I bet it be better than android. With 50 – 100 true GB per second coming to all, FreeBSD is already build for the webtop plus with real jails running every type of server one could imagine. It only goes to prove, no tech can do it all, but at least FreeBSD comes closers then all the rest … all for FREE, forever. That is why we must donate whatever and whenever we can. BTW: How much is a Windows Server License per year these days? Do it still come with unknown-tracker to keep an eye on it users? Do it do it better then systemd?
Smart business people plans for the next generation (). The best was full of common-sense, and that will/has been taken away until quantum change it back.
... and that's a fact!
