As to how to word it, I just said exactly what I did, and with what systems and what software. I have 2 Alphas (running FreeBSD), A Sun Sparc (Running Solaris 7), and 2 Intel systems (Running FreeBSD)a WinNT and a Win98 system all on the same home Lan. When asked what FreeBSD was (I was ready for this question) I had several of the pages from www.freebsd.org photocopied and ready. When the person interviewing me learned that FreeBSD was derived from BSD 4.4, that was a clincher for me. A lot also depends on how much clue the person interviewing you has.
