This is a really good idea.

I guess one question I would have to ask though is what are the selling 
points of FreeBSD?  The page has a great agenda, but let's say you were 
appealing to someone running Linux, Ubuntu, OS X, Windows... what 
exactly do they have to gain by coming down and installing FreeBSD?

It would be nice to have some talking points on that.
