Well, Linux vs. FreeBSD. I dont have much experiences with Linux. I
installed some readhat some days ago, with KDE etc, on FBSD I have just
twm. IMHO FBSD is much easier for a primitiv mind like mine.
What convinced me that FBSD is "better" was PicoBSD. Maybe there are better
one floppy Linux systems than what I tried, but PicoBSD was a real thing.

My first Unix was Minix on a 1 or 2 MB partition on a 286...20MB harddrive.
And a floppy on a XT. Just to get the look and feel of Unix.
