FreeBSD comes in different release versions. FreeBSD 2.2.x represents the most stable and reliable version. FreeBSD 2.2.x is probably the version you want. FreeBSD 3.x is experimental and essentially unsupported for commercial applications, but a great deal of fun for die-hard FreeBSD fans. :)

We currently have 2 distributions of Linux: Slackware and Red Hat. You're probably wondering at this very moment, "Which one is right for me?". Here's some info to help you make that decision...
If you are already a Linux user, stick with the distribution you learned on unless you have a reason to change. There are enough differences between the distributions to confuse and annoy those who switch. If you have no previous Linux experience, try Slackware.
Red Hat has a few aesthetically pleasing and user-friendly configuration utilities. These utilities ease the configuration of certain items, such as printers. The user is shielded from enough to allow the system to be usable without learning as much about the operating system.
Slackware configuration tends to require a bit more knowledge or effort. This extra effort pays off in helping one learn the operating system. Slackware embodies the true essence of linux, the "do-it-yourself" operating system, breaking all the rules. Slackware is Linux on a motorcycle, all wheels and attitude!
