After being an Windows/Cisco IT professional for the past 7 years, I
have decided to make the plunge over to FreeBSD on my own time.  I have
it installed, and it is quite overwhelming.  If anyone has any
recommendations/tips or books for acquainting one's self with FreeBSD
with no *nix experience I would greatly appreciate them.
