I intend on starting a business in the summer and I plan on using a secure operating system (definitely not MS Windows). 1. Is FreeBSD useful for a desktop environment for people to use in a workplace, (e.g. secretary, accountant, and manager) ? 2. Is FreeBSD completely free to download and use for commercial use? If so, are there licensing issues to worry about? 3. Is FreeBSD a 64bit operating system, because I may also think of having a lot of the projects on a server for accessing from other computers or even at home? Thank you. - Tosin A.
