i've heard you talk about unix...but i don't get it. i've seen screenshots... it loks like a bunch of random code. it seems like it's almost impossible to use unless you already understand the language......kind of like a french woman. Care to explain it (prefferably in detail while keeping it easy to understand)?

Anything you see in linux, the gui part... freebsd unix has too. The pretty part with icons and such is called X.org or XFree86. It's the exact same software that runs on linux and unix. They are identical from the visual perspective. The difference is behind the scenes. Linux is more compatible and easier to use, however freebsd has a more solid and secure core (kernel). The "bunch of random code" you think of when you hear unix also exists in linux, 10 fold. Unix came first and linux was a spin off of it by some egotistical idiot named Linus Torvalds. Linux is a bloated and broken version of unix. And I'm not biased at all. Really.

It isn't based on nextstep... it was stolen from nextstep. There was a famous event marked when Steve Jobs returned from a meeting with Nextstep people and went straight to his engineers saying "I want this." They ended up using a modified verision of freebsd called Darwin.

i was just tired of so much spyware and adware and viruses and shiton my pc. i dodn't wanna deal with that shit in school. college is too important for a virus to fuck me over and destroy half my shit (its happened before). the only downside.... no more excuses that my computer crashed and i couldn't finish it or the file isn't working right. i'm not much of a gamer, so whatever..... well, i'm an xBox type of guy, not a pc gamer.
