Also, this way you can start a vendor / os relationship which may carry you thru various product life cycles not to mention if you get hold of good manufacturer you may even get hardware/software support . Also, along those lines please if you purchase hardware for FreeBSD let the manufacturer know that your intent is for FreeBSD --- it does make a difference!! I know some of you are not that involved however many times we fill out vendor registration forms which asks which OS are you running so cross out linux or windows or whatever and write down FreeBSD 8) At any rate thats what I do...
