sub-categories. 1. All the changing .sgml files are now machine-generated. 2. software.sgml, consulting.sgml, misc.sgml, hardware.sgml now have an "alphabetical nav bar" on top. I.e., click on "T" and the browser locates the first entry beginning with "T". 3. The Software and Consulting entries now have sub-categories. The software_bycat.sgml and consulting_bycat.sgml are the new files. They index to software.sgml and consulting.sgml, respectively. 4. The index.sgml Software and Consulting links have been updated to use the new files. In addition, 5. Most of the entries have been rewritten one way or another, mainly to standardize them and fix typos, etc. Inconsistent use of <STRONG> tags fixed. Phone number format standardized (e.g., +1.800.555.1212.) Removed or updated stale version information (e.g., FBSD 2.1.6 is no longer current.) The sub-categories most likely will need to be adjusted, and I've probably "mis-categorized" some entries. All suggestions welcomed. Suggested by: wosch

<h2><font color="#990000">What is FreeBSD?</font></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>FreeBSD is an advanced BSD UNIX operating system for
|
|
"PC-compatible" computers, developed and maintained by <a
|
|
href="&base;/handbook/staff.html">a large team of
|
|
individuals</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2><font color="#990000">Cutting edge features</font></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>FreeBSD offers advanced networking, performance, security and
|
|
compatibility <a href="&base;/features.html">features</a> today
|
|
which are still missing in other operating systems, even some of
|
|
the best commercial ones.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2><font color="#990000">Powerful Internet solutions</font></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>FreeBSD makes an ideal <a href="&base;/internet.html">Internet
|
|
or Intranet</a> server. It provides robust network services,
|
|
even under the heaviest of loads, and uses memory efficiently to
|
|
maintain good response times for hundreds, or even thousands, of
|
|
simultaneous user processes. Visit our <a
|
|
href="gallery/gallery.html">gallery</a> for examples of
|
|
FreeBSD powered applications and services.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2><font color="#990000">Run a huge variety of
|
|
applications</font></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>The quality of FreeBSD combined with today's low-cost,
|
|
high-speed PC hardware makes FreeBSD a very economical
|
|
alternative to commercial UNIX workstations. It is well-suited
|
|
for a great number of both desktop and server <a
|
|
href="&base;/applications.html">applications</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2><font color="#990000">Easy to install</font></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>FreeBSD can be installed from a variety of media including
|
|
CD-ROM, floppy disk, magnetic tape, an MS-DOS partition, or if
|
|
you have a network connection, you can install it
|
|
<i>directly</i> over anonymous FTP or NFS. All you need is a
|
|
single 1.44MB boot floppy and <a
|
|
href="&base;/handbook/install.html">these directions</a>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2><font color="#990000">FreeBSD is <i>free</i></font></h2>

|
|
<a href="copyright/daemon.html"><img src="gifs/dae_up2.gif" alt=""
|
|
height="81" width="72" align="right" border="0"></a>
|
|
|
|
<p>While you might expect an operating system with these features
|
|
to sell for a high price, FreeBSD is available free of charge
|
|
and comes with full source code. If you would like to try it
|
|
out, <a href="&base;/availability.html">more information is
|
|
available</a>.</p>
