first, I have seen information on how-to create a live freebsd cd from an 
existing OS but no links to download an already made copy based on the new 
v5.1 OS. I was hoping someone could lead me to the right site where I can 
download it to be able to try it out before I install it, or is there a 
reason why someone cannot distribute them other than the customization of 
this CD?

I've noticed a site or two with "ports" of popular linux programs but they 
seem to be sources that need compiling. As with Redhat or debian with .rpm 
and .deb are there precompiled packages for FreeBSD?

And other than this mailing list are there any other sites or lists to get 
help for newbies?
