A fellow Albertan!! I love it! :-) I would also recommend buying the cd's. They are well worth the money, especially if you lose a HD etc... There are a few of us that are talking a little bit about forming some sort of informal AFUG (Alberta FreeBSD Users Group). If you are interested please let me know. Also, if we do set one up, would you be at all interested in hosting a private irc server? You could be reimbursed for it somehow... Also, I would recommend going to www.freebsd.org and looking under documentation/newbies for a doc called "For People new to both FreeBSD and Unix". That one really helped me.
