What is the best package to get? Will it work perfectly? I want a package with the manual, man-pages and how to use FreeBSD perfectly in books. What does Free in FreeBSD mean? Does it mean Free as in Free of charge? Or is there an alternate meaning? I'm wanting the best operating system for my laptop. Is this the one? Why is it free of charge when I want to pay for it? I don't want something stupid. I don't want to read the man-pages on the internet. Or the manual on the internet. Nor download anything. I don't like that. Does it come with all the applications I need for business and marketing? That's all I need.
