I do, however, have another PC. It is a 486 with 25 MHz, only 4 MB of ram, 170 Mb Hard disk. The only question I have is that will a FULL version of FreeBSD run on my PC. I don't want to learn some version that is outdated. What other resources can I turn to for questions. I have already checked out some reading material on amazon.com but before I purchase anything I want to know if the OS will work on my PC.
