Which BSD?

[Shadow]

Here's the short list:

FreeBSD - Most popular and best supported.  If you're new to BSD, this
is the one to start with.

NetBSD  - Most widely ported.  Works on damn near everything.

OpenBSD - Most secure.  This is an offshoot of FreeBSD that I consider
the most secure OS available.  For those paranoid types like me.

The following code is a PERL script capable of decoding a CSS (Content
Scrambling System) encrypted DVD in real time.  This is illegal to
possess in the US according to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, a
set of laws passed by anonymous vote in congress in 1998.  The Motion
Picture Association of America (MPAA) is opposed to the distribution of
this software because it allows the owners of CSS encrypted DVDs to
exercise their long-standing fair use rights with new digital
technologies.  For more information, please visit:
