Hi.

I've been using SuSE linux for 3 years now, and i thought that now is a
good time to go to the next level so to speak. Now i know very little
about freebsd so if you could just maybe point out the diffrences
between FreeBSD and linux.

One notable question is what filesystem does it work and what kind of
microkernel does it use. ie Mach comes to mind. i'm not sure though.
Also how compaible is it with linux and how does the kernel compiling
works. Is it the same as linux or not. also where can i get freebsd, =
not
download, on CD the cheaper the better. And how much does it go for ?

Thanks.
