12. Software to go with your hardware

I used to maintain an entire separate FAQ on Unixes for 386/486 and Pentium hardware. Times change, industries evolve, and I can now replace that FAQ with just three words:

Go get Linux!

Note

FreeBSD or OpenSolaris are currently niche choices, but if they offer something you need that Linux doesn't, don't let me stop you from trying one or both of them.
