BSD is Dying

The video BSD is Dying is uber-geeky however as someone who gets most of the jokes I really enjoyed it, and even learned a thing or to about the history of BSD - an OS I first encountered yoinks ago (lets say 20 years or so). The final slide is priceless.

Here is the original description from Google Video:


A tongue-in-cheek look at the history and future of the BSD movement. Modeled after the presentation styles of Lessig and Hardt, the talk ... all ยป provides a light-hearted introspection of the leaders, technologies, and community that forges ahead despite having been left for dead some 15 years past.

This presentation was given by Jason Dixon at the NYC BSD Conference at Columbia University on October 28, 2006
