That's another thing, the community here is really learned as well as 
really helpful. While I am new I have not run into the elitist snobs 
that often occupy the Linux groups. I was having issues with GDM after 
doing a fresh install and CVSUPing the latest port tree. I posted 
something to the -Gnome group and found some one was having a similar 
problem. In a couple days there was an update to the GDM2 port tree 
while had a fixed make file and a patch. Get that kind of instant 
gratification from M$? Nope. Get the ability to practice and learn an OS 
that is or like the OSes used on many servers with M$? Nope... w00t to 
FreeBSD

(I've noticed that the -Newbies group might as well be part of the 
-Advocacy list :P)
