When I ran BSD only, I though that Linux had better support for newer
hardward, soundcards and the like. When I started running Linux I found
that was not universally true, that there was no way to predict which
had better support and it seemed that things were pretty equal.
as for the AT&T code being removed, I view that rather like a "seed"
crystal around which BSD grew, the fact that the original "seed" has
been replaced does not change the shape of the crystal :), but then
again, what is UNIX is a matter of opinion, in my opinion.
