It's a pity there's no date on this message. I heard from Andy Oram at O'Reilly and Associates about a month ago, and we're going to do a book. We're still thrashing out the details. It'll definitely be smaller than "The Complete FreeBSD".

It would be interesting to see some focus on how FreeBSD is better than alternatives -- including Linux, NetBSD, OpenBSD, and Solaris-x86. For many folks who want to try unix, or even adepts that are just looking for the right match, this information is largely missing. I would think pointing to the number of ISPs that use FreeBSD would be a good point of info: speed, stability, networking, robustness...
