Not Happy with Vista OS ? Then try FreeBSD OS
What is FreeBSD OS ?
http://www.freebsd.org/
FreeBSD is an advanced operating system for x86 compatible (including Pentium® and Athlon™), amd64 compatible (including Opteron™, Athlon 64, and EM64T), Alpha/AXP, IA-64, PC-98 and UltraSPARC® architectures. It is derived from BSD, the version of UNIX® developed at the University of California, Berkeley.
It is developed and maintained by a large team of individuals. Additional platforms are in various stages of development.
Only one remote hole in the default install, in more than 8 years!
The OpenBSD project produces a FREE, multi-platform 4.4BSD- based UNIX-like operating system. Our efforts emphasize portability, standardization, correctness, proactive security and integrated cryptography. OpenBSD supports binary emulation of most programs from SVR4 (Solaris), FreeBSD, Linux, BSD/OS, SunOS and HP-UX.
OpenBSD is freely available from our FTP sites, and also available in an inexpensive 3-CD set.
The current release is OpenBSD 3.9 which was released May 1, 2006.
PC-BSD software is pleased to announce the immediate availability of PC-BSD 1.0 for x86 based processors.
This first "non-beta" release of PC-BSD ushers in a new era of stability and simplicity for desktop operating systems based on UNIX. Powered by the latest FreeBSD 6.0 and integrated with KDE 3.5.2, PC-BSD provides a solid server base, while being user-friendly enough to run as a primary desktop system.
Due to the nature of the UNIX operating system, PC-BSD provides a high degree of protection from the every growing threat of mal-ware, spy-ware and viruses that plague other popular operating systems today.
This release of PC-BSD provides numerous features, such as support for over 50 native languages, a new software installation method that removes troublesome library dependency problems and advanced hardware auto-detection.
Available in popular flavours of, x86, AMD64, i386, etc.
First there was UNIX, who begot FreeBSD and Linux, who now has 22 children (versions), Mac looked on at the new children in wonder, while all looked sad at Windows demise as young newborn Vista struggled to stand in the crowd.

FreeBSD abordable ? Bienvenue PC-BSD !
http://www.infos-du-net.com/actualite/5757-pc-bsd.html
L'écrasante majorité des utilisateurs actuels de PC ne connaissent en tout et pour tout qu'un seul système d'exploitation. Il ne me semble d'ailleurs pas faux d'affirmer que pour une partie non négligeable des utilisateurs, seul Microsoft Windows XP existe.
Rares sont ceux qui connaissent le monde extérieur à Windows, mis à part Mac OS qui est connu de tous. Et dont les dernières versions, à savoir la série X, est particulièrement plébiscité par les utilisateurs........etc
PC-BSD very nice !

This newsgroup is for Vista beta testers who have questions...this isnt one

FreeBSD is great! I tried it and I love it! Now it's goodbye to MS security-lacking, trojan targeted, DRM infested OSes! Life is good. :)

bye.
