Hi. I'm a fairly experienced Dos & Windows user with enough knowledge of
Unix to perform basic file management and use networking utilities. Ive
read the docs online. How hard is it to install FreeBsd on a system that
also runs Win95 (I need it for my GUI loving parents) *really*? Also,
how similar and how different is it from commercial BSDI UNIX? And will
it peform quickly (meaning no delays for text printing on screen) on a
P133 166Mb ram. I have had no troubles with Win95's or Dos's speed.

These may seem like simple questions, but I want to know before I take
the plunge.
Thanks,
Colin Morrison
