OS cost is not an issue. So that makes no difference in my selection. I have read the faq on 386bsd. It says that BSD cannot reside next to a dos partition, is this still teh case? and will i be able to run xwindows from bsd. this is very important. for now i will be running the system on a 386 system. although if i need more performance i will get a 486-50. any short and evenly biased replies are welcome.. thanks .
