I'm going to get PC-BSD (FreeBSD v6.0). I rather go with BSD than one of the
countless number of Linux distros. The BSD development philosphy is more
professional, stable, robust, and isn't really fighting commerical software
companies like the Linux movement. Besides, FreeBSD can run most Linux software
anyway and Euphoria would work just fine because it's a supported platform.

I know nothing about BSD, but I'm up for the challenge to learn the Unix way of
things.

PC-BSD/Windows XP dual boot sounds good. smile

Vincent
