'Will IBM support DB2 running on FreeBSD'  
The only experience I have with IBM is Unidata... and I doubt you
would get any support for DB2 on bsd.  Not related in any means
however I'd never install somehting like that without knowing it
would be supported by the vendor.

Something to think about.  ;-)
