My intent is not offensive. I have used FreeBSD since 3,x

I do not see your problem. I work for an ISP that runs
almost all of its 
business on FreeBSD servers. It is not in the USA and we do
not need any 
loacl partners.

I can asume your server are not audited by goverment. In
those cases you 
prefer to blame your software provider.

How much does it cost you a hour of downtime ?

8 hours can ruin your company treasury ?
