+	Intel, AMD, Cyrix or NexGen <span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="quote">&#8220;<span class="quote">x86</span>&#8221;</span> based PC

+	(mips), and <span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="trademark">PowerPC</span>® (powerpc) architectures
+	are currently under development as well.  FreeBSD works with
+	a wide variety of peripherals and configurations and can be
+	used for everything from software development to games to
+	Internet Service Provision. </p><p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/transitional">This release of FreeBSD contains everything you need to run
+	such a system, including full source code for the kernel and
+	all utilities in the base distribution.  With the source
+	distribution installed, you can literally recompile the entire
+	system from scratch with one command, making it ideal for
+	students, researchers, or users who simply want to see how it
+	all works. </p><p xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/transitional">A large collection of third-party ported software (the
+	<span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="quote">&#8220;<span class="quote">Ports Collection</span>&#8221;</span>) is also provided to make it
+	easy to obtain and install all your favorite traditional
+	<span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="trademark">UNIX</span>® utilities for FreeBSD.  Each <span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="quote">&#8220;<span class="quote">port</span>&#8221;</span> consists
+	of a set of scripts to retrieve, configure, build, and install
+	a piece of software, with a single command.  Over
+	24,000 ports, from editors to programming languages to
+	graphical applications, make FreeBSD a powerful and comprehensive
+	operating environment that extends far beyond what's provided
+	by many commercial versions of <span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="trademark">UNIX</span>®.  Most ports are also
+	available as pre-compiled <span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="quote">&#8220;<span class="quote">packages</span>&#8221;</span>, which can

On-line versions of the <a xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="link" href="../../../../doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/" target="_top">Handbook</a> and <a xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="link" href="../../../../doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/faq/" target="_top">FAQ</a> are always

+	operating systems, to guidelines for new committers.  Like the
+	Handbook and FAQ, these documents are available from the FreeBSD
+	Documentation Page or in the <code xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" class="filename">doc</code>
