Am I wrong to expect that a journalist might possess a rudimentary grasp of English? A couple of examples:
"Regarding the USB2 card, I could not test it because I couldn't see any EHCI option ("device ehci") on the FreeBSD configuration kernel file except of OHCI and UHCI and so I didn't bother recompiling the kernel (especially now that the 5.x kernels come precompiled for sound there is little incentive to mess with it anymore)."
"Once upon a time this was a big bragging point for the Linux/Unix folks, but today is nothing that would make any new user or "switcher" awe."
Since when was 'awe' a verb? Have these been throught Babelfish and back again? Where did this guy learn to write? Or is it just another sorry case of the only editorial control being "does it get past the spellchecker on Word"?
Quite frankly, whatever he has to say about FreeBSD is severely tainted by the knowledge that he is clearly illiterate.
