+\begin{center}
+\titledframe{What is FreeBSD?}{
+FreeBSD is an advanced operating system for x86 compatible (Intel\reg
+and AMD\tm), AMD64 (AMD Opteron\tm and Athlon\tm 64), DEC Alpha, IA-64
+(Intel\reg Itanium\reg Processor Family), PC-98 and UltraSPARC\reg
+architectures.  It is currently being ported to PowerPC\reg and MIPS
+architectures.
+
+FreeBSD is derived from BSD, the version of UNIX\reg
+developed at the University of California, Berkeley.

+\titledframe{Cutting edge features}{
+FreeBSD offers advanced networking, performance, security and
+compatibility features which are still missing in other
+operating systems, even some of the best commercial ones.
+}{5cm}
+\titledframe{\textsf{\textbf{Powerful Internet solutions}}}{
+FreeBSD includes what many consider the reference implementation for
+TCP/IP software, the 4.4BSD TCP/IP protocol stack, thereby making it
+ideal for network applications and the Internet.
+FreeBSD makes an ideal Internet or Intranet server. It provides robust
+network services under the heaviest loads and uses memory efficiently
+to maintain good response times for thousands of simultaneous user
+processes.
+}{11cm}
+
+\vspace{5mm}
+
+\titledframe{Run a huge number of applications!}{
+FreeBSD comes with over 10000 third party software packages
+ready to be installed including: Apache, Samba, MySQL\reg,
+OpenOffice.Org, KDE, GNOME, MPlayer, etc.\\
+
+FreeBSD provides the ports system which fetches sources
+and compiles binaries from the Internet or from a CD-ROM, including
+building and installing any dependencies.  All these operations are
+done in a transparent way for the user.\\
+
+Most of GNU/Linux binaries run under FreeBSD, for example:
+Acrobat Reader\reg, Oracle\reg, SAP/R3\reg, Mathematica\reg, Quake3,
+etc., without any noticeable speed degradation.
+}{17.3cm}
+
+\vspace{5mm}
+
+\titledframe{FreeBSD is easy to install}{
+FreeBSD can be installed from a variety of media including CD-ROM,
+DVD-ROM, floppy disk, magnetic tape, an MS-DOS\reg
+partition, or if you have a network connection, you can install it
+directly using anonymous FTP or NFS.
+}{17.3cm}
+
+\vspace{5mm}
+
+\titledframe{FreeBSD is free}{
+FreeBSD is available free of charge and comes with full source code.
+The majority of the source code of the FreeBSD system is
+available under the standard BSD licence.  In contrast to the GPL
+licence used by the Linux kernel, the BSD licence allows distribution
+of derived work without accompanying source code.  This lets companies
+use the FreeBSD code as the base of a proprietary product, often
+leading to parts of what they do being released back to the community.
+}{17.3cm}
+
+\vspace{5mm}
+
+\titledframe{Can handle nearly any task}{
+FreeBSD is well-suited for a great number of desktop, server, embedded
+or appliance applications.
+Today, FreeBSD is not just a server operating system but
+aims itself also at end users, particularly newcomers from Windows\reg
+and GNU/Linux.
