After sending Todd a lenghtly e-mail with praise on the site I had let him know I would not join LBD until a forum was devoted to the other spectrum of the *NIX's, the UNIX's of course! Linux is great and all, but I am still a die hard FreeBSD user... Props to Todd for taking the time to go read user requests and give them what they ask for!!!

Cool

I hate to make an ass of myself, considering we just met, but the plural form of "UNIX" is Unices Wink

I'm a fan of Portage, so source based.

As Ly I favor Gentoo, so make it source based for me.

Welcome to the fun & games, DaveyJ!

Dang, for some reason when I read it over in the proof I thought something looked odd... Anyway, thanks for the correction!

Wow, lots of warm welcomes, thanks to all!!! Hopefully this "Unices" thread gets some well deserved use... Wink
