Q. Where does Darwin fit into the BSD family?
A. The purpose of Darwin is to provide the core system software for Mac OS X. It is not designed to be an alternative to other excellent BSD options such as FreeBSD, NetBSD, and OpenBSD. Darwin is simply BSD tweaked in ways we think will help Apple deliver the next great version of the Mac OS. We should note, however, that apart from a few architectural differences (such as our use of the Mach kernel), we try to keep Darwin as compatible as possible with FreeBSD (our BSD reference platform).

It's probably intended for remote helping the ultimate noobs. I think MS employees have many better things to do than wasting time to poke inside a random user's computer.
So in other words, linux is just a variation of FreeBSD/Unix created by Linus Torvalds?Here's a site that may help explain the commonalities and differences between Linux and FreeBSD.
Here's the jist of it.
Is FreeBSD a Linux?
FreeBSD, like Linux, is a free, open-source and secure Berkeley Software Distributions or BSD operating system that is built on top of Unix operating systems. FreeBSD is one...frameboxxindore.comIs FreeBSD Linux or Unix?
FreeBSD is a free and open-source Unix-like operating system descended from the Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD), which was based on Research Unix.
How is BSD different from Linux?
The biggest difference between Linux and BSD is that Linux is a kernel, whereas BSD is an operating system (also includes the kernel) which has been derived from the Unix operating system. The Linux kernel is used to create a Linux Distribution after stacking other components.
Is FreeBSD a Linux distribution?
Both FreeBSD and Linux-based distributions are Unix-like in nature. FreeBSD has close roots to Unix systems of the past, while Linux was created from scratch as an open Unix-like alternative.
That said, Apple is more like Unix then Linux.
I always keep a backup of the OS I use, so they're welcome to delete anything they want, I'll restore it in under 2 minutes.You do realise that you don't own windwoes...you pay a fee to lease it and because of that...microsuck employees can do what ever they like and that includes deleting software too.
microsuck can for any reason can cancel your lease at anytime for any reason...in other words...Do as we say or else.
Installing windwoes you agree to all the terms and conditions...it's all in the EULA so people can't complain and that's another reason to run as fast as you can to Linux and Freedom.
I always keep a backup of the OS I use, so they're welcome to delete anything they want, I'll restore it in under 2 minutes.
But since I abandoned Crapindows, I no longer need a backup. If some day they decide to go back to the old days of Windows 7, I'll have a backup again.
Well it's all fine and good if you can find a browser...or an internet connection...but better yet, just say no to the windom!I’ve been running Linux Mint Cinnamon for 7 years and loving it...although I have a win 7 VM...I use it rarely. Yesterday in a store I saw windwoes spyware 11 on a Laptop and gave it a try...stupid me.
I couldn’t believe how far it’s deteriorated into a jumbled mess...what a joke. I didn’t know where to start...everything is all over the place and windwoes users say Linux is too hard.
I've never experienced a BSOD with Window 10 OS and my Windows 10 desktops work good.
I guess that's one major reason that MS will continue its prevalence and not be abandoned so easily.I've never experienced a BSOD with Window 10 OS and my Windows 10 desktops work good.
