I have a few questions about FreeBSD. I am just beginning to get into UNIX. I know a few line commands, but really want to get familiar and comfortable with the OS. I have been intrugued by FreeBSD for many years now, but I own a windows-based PC and am not keen about running dual OS's. I would like to get a cheap, used, small desktop or laptop to "tinker" with Unix/Linix and FreeBSD. However, I know little to nothing about system requirements and/or hardware compability. I was thinking of an old 486 or Pentium 1 to get started. Any thoughts on what I could start with? Sincerely, Matt S. Gann --------------------------------- Yahoo!
