FreeBSD Popularity

[Brandon Falk]

Hello there FreeBSD people,

Why is it that FreeBSD is so far behind Linux in popularity? The fact 
that lots of companies are not very supportive of FreeBSD (ex. NVIDIA 
and ATI 64-bit drivers) is really starting to bother me. I guess I would 
like to have a bit of a discussion of what could be improved to increase 
the popularity of FreeBSD, as honestly I can do almost everything in 
FreeBSD that I can in Linux, so why can't FreeBSD thrive as much as 
Linux. Is it that it is harder to install/configure? Any opinions/ideas 
on this situation?
