Unix wasn't designed to be a server either. It was designed to play a game Ken liked on a PDP system and they wrote a text processing tool so it could be used by Bell Labs for something other than that game. You sure like saying BSD a lot. I can tell you from experience, not only do I feel that BSD and Linux only are different in philosophical terms, but the BSD community agrees.

You may want to check out sections of "The Complete Free BSD" towards the begining of the book, and "Free BSD Unleashed 2nd edition" which has simnilar info. Linux isn't less stable or less server ready, but it is however more desktop ready.

Lol besides the Kernel and a few tools, I'd like to hear you name more than 12 differences between Free BSD and Slackware from a user perspective. They are almost twins, and me and the rest of the Free BSD community, love Slackware.

I should find the mails from Free BSD where they were saying "We know Slackware is good, and we are cool with you using the Free BSD docs project to port those to Slackware". I know all this because I was the first person on the team to start doing so.
