oh yeah, i forgot about that ... still there are some that are patent
unencumbered aren't there?

yeah open bsd is nice, but i much prefer apt to the ports collection.
before apt showed up i was almost tempted to switch to open/freebsd because
the ports tree is so nice. the bummer about the ports tree is that can't
clean up after itself as well as a binary package can, and my experience
with freebsd is that the dependencies aren't handled nearly as well as
debian handles them.
and if you want to compile them there's always 'apt-get --compile source
packagename'. if you haven't used it before here's how it works :)
