You're right. Clearly, FreeBSD has failed the open source community. Screw all those vendors! We'll remove support. That'll show 'em. FreeBSD may lose a large percentage of it's user base due to lack of hardware support, but hell, we didn't need them anyways. Let them run Linux.

I know you're one of those OpenBSD advocates, so just to clarify: that was sarcasm.
