<h3>FreeBSD raises the bar for open source operating systems.</h3>
<p>FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE<br>
Berkeley, CA November 4, 2005</p>
<p>The FreeBSD Project announces the availability of FreeBSD 6.0, an open
source operating system derived from BSD UNIX, which offers a powerful
alternative to Linux, Solaris, and Windows. FreeBSD enables enterprise
organizations to utilize open source technologies that focus on
reliability, security, and scalability.</p>
<p>"Yahoo! is impressed with the performance and stability of FreeBSD 6.0,"
says David Filo, Yahoo! co-founder. Yahoo! is one of many enterprise
companies that rely on the world-renowned stability and performance of the
FreeBSD operating system.</p>
<p>One of the new features in FreeBSD 6.0 is a multithreaded filesystem,
which greatly improves data access times for local disks, RAID
configurations, network filesystems, and SANs. Recent performance
benchmarks show that FreeBSD 6.0 outperforms Linux in raw data
throughput.</p>
<p>Additionally, FreeBSD 6.0 extends support for wireless devices such as
Intel Centrino and adds support for the popular new WPA wireless security
protocol. Several improvements are incorporated into NDISulator, a
component of the operating system that allows Windows network drivers to
run natively under FreeBSD.</p>
<p>FreeBSD now scales much more efficiently across multiple processor
systems. Support for 8 or more processors, such as the new dual core AMD
Opteron configurations, gives consumers a viable alternative against more
expensive, proprietary hardware platforms and operating systems from IBM,
HP, and Sun.</p>
<h3>About the FreeBSD Project</h3>
<p>The FreeBSD Project provides a free, open source operating system for
several platforms, including Intel x86 and AMD64. FreeBSD is derived from
BSD, the version of UNIX developed at UC Berkeley. The unencumbered BSD
license permits modification and redistribution of the software while
allowing an individual or company to retain intellectual property.</p>
