    Note: The correct list to ask this on would be either
    questions@freebsd.org or powerpc@freebsd.org. I'm setting the followup
    to powerpc here.

      ...

Anyway, PCs are just as bad with the main difference that instead of making you upgrade all your software to the new standard or use them with slow emulated subsystem of the OS, Windows makes you upgrade to the latest thing (inc. near compulsory hardware upgrade to support new and improved bloatware in the OS) as soon as someone writes a piece of software that you need to have that requires Vista, *and* the OS has a load of low level legacy crap in it to support old software as much as possible. ...
