Take a look here http://www.scnc.k12.mi.us/. This is a project managed by
the Technical Support Services Group in the Computer Lab here at MSU. FreeBSD
is run on all the S.C.N.C. servers. Many of the tech staff within the Technical
Services run FreeBSD on our desktops. Contact Matt Kolb at [EMAIL PROTECTED]
for more info on what they're doing. Cheuck Henrich who use to head the project
when he was the leader of the Special Projects group could also tell you more.
I don't have his email address at hand, but search the hackers mailing list
and you'll find some postings from him. He's no longer at MSU, but the company
he's working for used FreeBSD for some graphics rendering engine for the movie
"The Matrix" ...

Keep plugging away scrappy, you'll get FBSD in there. Also check the main web site
for large companies (like yahoo) that are using freebsd ...
