 I thought "has had" would imply it no longer has, thus I used "has".
Maby "does have" is better?

 Plural form of "graphic board" is "graphics boards"? Hm.
And for "adaptor" and "adapter" - both is seen.

 It wasnt meant as strong argument. It was meant to show that NetBSD is
more than a kernel.

 At the time this page will be installed, it will be :-) Hell, I improved
my english quite well over the years using the Internet, but may be next
