Dos is based off of another OS that is based off of UNIX. Unix runs almost all the most important computers in the world. It's VERY powerful. FreeBSD is an entire operating system in itself. Windows 95 software is not compatible with FreeBSD because of this. FreeBSD -stable branch makes Win95 look as stable as Key West during a hurricane. So, if you're ready to willing to read the handbook, and the help files, and are willing to learn what REALLY makes the world go around....:) Then I highly suggest you either go to www.freebsd.org and follow the link that says installation instructions, or go to www.cdrom.com and purcahse the FreeBSD 2.2.8 CDROM set and book.
