Getting FreeBSD sounds safer to me.
First timers won't follow the link about installing. They think
download-then-install so it seems obvious to them that they have to
"get" it first, or at least check out where it is and how big the
freebsd.zip file is :-) Remove "get" and expect more of them to write
to -questions asking how to get it. Leave "Getting FreeBSD" there, and
we can trick some of them into actually going to the installation
instructions.
