PC-BSD "I've been using PC-BSD for approx. 10 Months so I've had enough time to see what life throws at me with it. My first install was 1.0 Release Canadate 1 and I currently run PC-BSD 1.2 (the current release) on my laptop and have a beta version of 1.3 installed on my desktop for testing. This will cover PC-BSD 1.2 and PC-BSD in general. PC-BSD is primarly for desktops but makes a darn good laptop/workstation system." More here.

Thank you, Charles A Landemaine for submitting the article and thank you, Eugenia, for being brave enough to publish the link to such refreshing read. ( I can't care less about grammar and article composition )
It would be my #1 candidate for hypothetical "Beginner's guide to the desktop Unix" unformal and friendly "OS and what to do with it" manual.
I know most experts and high-profile operating system reviewers would find many holes in sas_spidey01's observations but they should know it is not fully competent insight but rather "I'll tell ya,buddy" sort of friendly advice.
What's more important to me is that such a complex topic as operating system review migh be is finding its way to "ordinary" non-geeky people aroung the block who are not always chatting about last CSI: episode.
sas_spidey01's certainly isn't average computer user ( http://sas-spidey01.livejournal.com/7246.html )
but his honesty and naiveness makes me believing
there still are computer users who enjoy computing whatever it might be.
Should we ever see a paperback "Anthology of PC geeks notes" sas_spidey01's digital diary would be
among them no doubt about it.
