Hi Lanny,

From: "Lanny Baron" <ln@FreeBSDsystems.com>

["Our Servers do work with FreeBSD"]

So in short, and yes this is repetitive, if you or the other fellow had chosen us to build you a Server, you and the other fellow would not have encountered the SMP problem and, you would still be running FreeBSD.

Even worse, multiple times... "FreeBSD SMP for Lannys servers"? ;)

And, no, why should we buy (a) from the US and (b) from a "small" OEM? Working in a european-wide company has some side effects - for example a policy to buy only specific servers from specific vendors (which have to be available in all that countrys). So, there are only the "Big Players", f.ex. HP, SUN, ...´

Back to track: this is no solution; buying hardware by OS needs and not by system needs/policy/[insert-any-other-reason]. If the OS doesn't work with a standard hardware it's simply of no use. Don't get me wrong, I WANT to use FreeBSD - but this isn't my choice anymore if it does not run on our typical hardware. I hate to use Linux and I definately hate to use Solaris (and even pay for that crap).

Regards, Lanny

Oliver
