    I wish someone had told me about it at the time. I tried Linux and gave up on *nix for the next 6 years. :)

    So can we expect a special 10th anniversary edition CD set one year from today when 3.8 goes gold?

    Maybe I'll have my 3.6 CDs by then.

    And now, a haiku:

      Yay, Happy Birthday!
      Puffy is the great big 9,
      Celebrate 0wnage.

    Thank you, thank you very much.

    ¡Fu*k u OpenBSD! Most retards use this OS! They all want to be as c00l and l33t as th30 and like to say RTF Anything instead of developing or even helping!

    Signed: OpenBSD itself rocks, users do not. You are not c00l3r, remember.

      Truth pains, moderation confirms.

      I agree that most of the OpenBSD users are auto-haloed and believe they're p0w3rc00l h4x0r just because they know 1 command you don't.

      Comments
      1. By Anonymous Coward (69.197.92.181) on

        You believe wrong. Most openbsd users don't give two shits what you know compared to them. Just because people don't want to hold your hand for you, and tell you to learn for yourself, doesn't mean they think they are l33t, it means they don't want to waste their time helping an asshat that can't be bothered to try.

    2. By giezet (80.142.40.216) on

      Sorry guy, I can't agree with you. There is an excellent German page which is an excellent introduction into OpenBSD for beginners. Made by users for users. There is not even a trace of snobism, egoism or elitism.

      http://unixscout.de

      In German only, I'm sorry. But an excellent example of a great community.
