O'Reilly makes one called "learning the unix operating system." Its a little book with basic commands in it. If you decide to give up on freebsd, I would recommend buying that Macintosh. Mac OS X has BSD roots as they say. In fact, buying a Mac could help you learn Unix enough to give freebsd a try on that old x86 box. :) Lucas Holt Luke@FoolishGames.com ________________________________________________________ FoolishGames.com (Jewel Fan Site) JustJournal.com (Free blogging) "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." - Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
