Hi folks. I'm new to FreeBSD as well as Linux. I know nothing about
about programming and am relying mostly on what  any CD
containing either operating system will do to install itself on my
computer. The computer that I'm using to learn about FreeBSD
is an IBM Aptiva with a AMD K6-2 processor. 
The first thing I would like to accomplish is to get either the
KDE or Gnome GUIs started. I have version 4.9 of
FreeBSD. Any advice or any websites that can help a dummy
like me get going will help very much.

Myron
