Honestly, I've been out of the loop for the past few years, so I can't really comment how good the drivers are now.Rich Geldreichhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14358203173986928600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7395797351911594965.post-80919500255344377772017-01-27T08:45:32.786-08:002017-01-27T08:45:32.786-08:00Hello Rich!

If yes, what was considered the downside of FreeBSD?

I know it did, e.g. "vendor B" gone to FOSS, and fixed many problems _(e.g. the quality, because the code now is public)_; but it'd be cool to hear your opinion, as from someone, who was working closely with all of that.Hi-Angelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10661636579329649996noreply@blogger.com
