I am interested in downloading a free Unix operating system such as
Linux or FreeBSD. I have Windows 95 installed as the main OS on a
Pentium and wanted to put a Unix OS on a seperate partition. What are
the pros and cons of these two operating systems and/or any other free
Unix ones?

Please e-mail to wgd@adelaide.on.net because I don't usually read this
newsgroup.
Thanks!
