Well, yes and no.  Since Linux is more popular in the PC world than NetBSD
(gauged from the amounts discussed about each that I've seen), it is quite
possible that some obscure software that has been written for Linux only will
need slight tweeks to adjust it for BSD Unix instead of System V.  These may
be minor, but certainly require more knowledge that simply typing 'make bsd'

Is that what you mean by 'almost'?

That's the way I see it - I reserve the right to be completely wrong...

Cheers,
Theo
