FreeBSD is a great platform to start in Unix. I am only 16 and have
done some amazing things with my coumputer. But since this was my first
venture into Unix, I thought it would be a good learning experince.

I got FreeBSD on a Monday. By Friday I had XFree86 running with
different windows managers(and I don't even know how to program).

For anyone getting into Unix, choose FreeBSD, I did.
