Even myself as a developer had problems understanding what the author was talking about. The content of the article is basically a mixture of BSD History, excerpts from the official press release and some passages from the handbook plus a wrong BSD Family tree and the standard daemon image. Although the author posts to BSD Newgroups and Mailinglist frequently, he didn&#8217;t wrote anything about his personal experience with FreeBSD, did he even tried to install version 5.x? As a FreeBSD Newbie I am missing information about the installation (screenshots :-), as a FreeBSD 4.x user I am missing information about the differences between 4.x and 5.x. And as a hacker i am missing information about new features in the kernel.<br \/>\nI tried to find a better article on the web, but unfortunately the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.freebsd.org\/news\/press.html\">press section<\/a> of the FreeBSD website is two months out of date. And the articles on news.google.com were all not more than excerpts from the press release.<br \/>\nSame with the blogosphere. Some FreeBSD users saying &#8220;Cool!&#8221; and &#8220;Finally!&#8221;, but nothing substantial.<br \/>\nCan any of my readers point me to a good professional neutral review of FreeBSD 5.3?
