[conspire] Debian/BSD

[Bill Lazar]

Rick,

I asked because I'm new to the free *NIX scene and one of the puzzles,
for me, is the differences between the two 'main' kernels. Since you are
generally in favor of Debian as a distro, I thought you or others might
have experimented with both and would be able to share some comments.
