What is FreeBSD?

Frequently Asked Questions for FreeBSD 2.X, 3.X, 4.X and 5.X
Briefly, FreeBSD is a UNIX® like operating system for the i386™, IA-64, PC-98, Alpha/AXP, and UltraSPARC® platforms based on U.C. Berkeley's ''4.4BSD-Lite'' release, with some ''4.4BSD-Lite2'' enhancements. It is also based indirectly on William Jolitz's port of U.C. Berkeley's ''Net/2'' to the i386, known as ''386BSD'', though very little of the 386BSD code remains. A fuller description of what FreeBSD is and how it can work for you may be found on the FreeBSD home page.

Do some sound cards work better than others?

I-link and Echo-Link FAQ Database - A Bravenet.com Faq
I have downloaded and have tried to use ECHOLINK but I keep getting the "Not Connected" signal. I am using MS XP Home edition. I have done as suggested and have adjusted my firewall ie: 5200,5198 and 5199 but I still cannot connect to any station that I tried. Is there a way to tell if I am even validated or connected at all? In other words how can I tell if I am even "Getting Out". I even tried connecting to the test server with the same "not connected" results.

Which Sound Cards are compatible with NaturallySpeaking?

ITSpeaking - Speech Recognition Specialists - General FAQs
Creative® Labs SoundBlaster® Live, Player and Platinum (card only) or the Audigy Player (MP3) are the only cards we recommend. Built-in sound chips are generally not suitable because of electrical interference, even though they claim to be SoundBlaster® compatible. An excellent alternative is a USB sound system from Andrea, VXi or Buddy/Emkay. Professional recording cards may give good results but are frequently very difficult to set up.
