I was going to say one other thing, but it seems to have had slipped...

If you do nothing else to the welcome.html file, change the first line 
after the heading "Availability" near the bottom.

"You might expect to pay a considerable sum of money for all the 
performance and features of FreeBSD, but thanks..."

It just screams "INFOMERCIAL" at me (things which generally don't rank too 
high in credability, it seems).

Possibly,

"While the perfomance and features of FreeBSD are worth a considerable 
amount, thanks to..."

Which isn't incredibly better, but seems to be an improvement (from here, 
anyways).
