FreeBSD: The Operating System of the Internet
Here are a couple of "takes" directed toward the Win95 market (people
who probably aren't reading Sys Admin magazine)
________________
You've hacked the '95 registry and downloaded powertoys--
and discovered that they're just that, toys.
You've gone about as far as you can go with Windows 95.
You're in a box that Microsoft built. It's time to get out.
It's time to get a real operating system, multi-user, multi-tasking,
Internet capable, an operating system with all the
programs and utilities you need not just to connect to your ISP,
but to be one if you want to.
An operating system that comes with source code, runs on your pc,
and can be downloaded free over the Internet. An operating system
in the great tradition of Berkeley unix.
Set yourself free
Get the source
Get FreeBSD
Or similarly:
You've hacked the '95 registry. You've downloaded powertoys and
discovered that they're just that -- toys.
You're young, you're smart, and let's face it, you're bored.
You've gone about as far as you can go with Windows 95.
You're ready for a real operating system for your pc -- multi-user,
multi-tasking, Internet capable--not only as a client, but as a server.
An operating system in the great tradition of Berkeley unix.
You don't just want to connect to an ISP....you're thinking of
becoming one.
You want to write your own bot, run your own web server, compile
your own kernel, hack the system code.
Make the world.
Make the world yours.
Get FreeBSD.
The Operating System of the Internet
