FreeBSD – the unknown Giant

FreeBSD is a free, open-source and UNIX-like operating system. Though relatively unknown, it’s a performing and powerful work-horse, capable of coping with massive work-loads whilest remaining fast, ultra-stable and rock-solid. Blogging about FreeBSD and operating systems based on this versatile, safe and secure OS, I want to generate more interest in FreeBSD and its dependants. If you need a reliable, rock-solid and performing system for either your desktop or servers, consider FreeBSD!

Hence this website to try to raise more awareness of FreeBSD and operating sytem based on it... [more]

Why is this blog called "FreeBSD, the unknown Giant"? Well, it's what IBM has called FreeBSD in an article titled "Why FreeBSD". It's as simple as that:

The FreeBSD operating system is the unknown giant among free operating systems. Starting out from the 386BSD project, it is an extremely fastUNIX-like operating system mostly for the Intel chip and its clones. In manyways, FreeBSD has always been the operating system that GNU/Linux-basedoperating systems should have been. It runs on out-of-date Intel machines and64-bit AMD chips, and it serves terabytes of files a day on some of the largestfile servers on earth.
