Computers that us FreeBSD. HELP!!!!

[Ryan Jenkins]

Jerry, or Erich,

I am wondering how I could Download the FreeBSD OS to a disk, so I could try
and install it on the computers I am trying to get to work?  Could you give
me some pointers on the process?

Yes.  Any servers from those vendors will work.
Plus, there are a couple of companies that claim to produce systems
expecially for running FreeBSD servers.

  Some are:   http://www.freedomtc.com/
              http://www.ixsystems.com/
              http://www.ironsystems.com/index.asp

They don't limit themselves to FreeBSD, but they claim support for it.
