Sorry for the noise here, but where would we submit 'ad' ideas? I've
done a bit of graphical design work (international publications), and
I have some possible ideas, my favorite is:
beginning graphic:

Did you know?
L I N U X
is used by hundreds of internet providers world wide...

(where LINUX is a big snazzy looking logo)
Clicking on the image will take you to the full page with some more
graphics to the effect of
Yet FreeBSD outperforms it in (most? all? majority?) network applications!
Recently stanford university performed an independant study
of FreeBSD and Linux. They found that (insert inspiring
numbers and stats here).
This study has prompted the FreeBSD development team to conduct
further benchmarks, creating a wide array of information on
using not only FreeBSD vs Linux, but also other PC unix systems
such as NetBSD, BSD/OS (BSDi?), [Unixware, SCO?]
[info on getting and learning more about FreeBSD]
Etc.
Actual wording would, of course, be correct and acurate :)
