So then, is free bsd better than Linux ?

where can I get it from?  I don't want to download it.

One further question.  I would like to run it on PC,  which currently runs
dos/windows.  Can I run my windows apps under BSD ?  If not can I keep the
windows system to use sometimes? And if I connect to the interenet with free
bsd and download files,  can I "get at them" with windows (e.g. is they are
windows programs)?

I look forward to your reply,

Cheers,


Richard Parker.
