Hi!!

FreeBSD is (IMHO) the number freely availiable UNIX.  It will give you an
excellent understanding of UNIX if you work hard at it.  I have been using
it for about 5 months.  It is a learning curve but also the most fun I've
ever had on a computer.

I ran a dual boot with Win95 for a while until I learned enough about
FreeBSD.  Dual boot will work great as long as Windows is installed first.
The FBSD set-up will install the boot manager for you.

Good Luck!!
