Subject: What is BSD

Hey there,

Well my question is just a general one I was wondering if you could explain in laymans terms (someone who is familar enough to keep simple office tasks and other programs running on a Windows based computer and knows how to munipulate files in DOS) what BSD is and how it works? Also any tips you can give me on what Linux is, (besides the "someone created it based off the concept of Unix so it could be more afforadble than Unix which is so great" line) would be appriciated.

I currently sell classified advertising space in the Portland Business Journal and one of my three catergories is technology. I know a lot about it but not enough I find as my clients leave me in the dust when discussing these things with me.

Thanks for any time taken regarding my question.
