No, this is not another flavor of Linux. Linux and NetBSD, although
similair (both being BSD Unix derivatives), are somewhat different. You
can find out more information about NetBSD on the website: www.netbsd.org
For information on Linux, check www.redhat.com, www.debian.org, or
Slackware's website (I forget the URL). Use your favorite search engine.
BTW, if you hate Microsoft so much, why are you using hotmail? Check out
www.juno.com for another free email client.
