>Hi, > >Im interested in using FreeBSD, but I have a couple of questions. First thing to note is that it is not good to send messages to this mailing list in HTML. Many people have mail reading programs that are either set to disable HTML, or do not support it in the first place. Additionally , HTML email is used for all kinds of things such as for tracking valid email addresses for use by spammers. Just something to keep in mind in the future. :-) >is there any suppliers in the UK that distribute FreeBSD? You can download FreeBSD from www.freebsd.org, and there is a FreeBSD users group whos URL is http://ukug.uk.freebsd.org/ >and my second question is will FreeBSD run along side a Windows platform ok >or should it be on the HDD by itself. Yes, you can run FreeBSD alongside any other OS and, using WINE, can even run many Windows programs from within FreeBSD. For more details, see the Documentation section of the FreeBSD website listed above; particularly the handbook and the FAQ.
