Brand new to linux and unix

[Julio Gutierrez]

I don't really know about linux and unix too much but i like trying
different OS's and one thing I dont know is how to download Unix because
they don't have ISO images, they only have folders with all the files needed
for an install, so it is dificult for me to know wich files to download and
how to make a bootable cd with them files if anyone can help me solve this
little problem I'll really appreciate it !

Thank You !
Julio

yeah, openBSD is great (easy too).
although i'd modify that "the most secure OS out there today"
to "the most secure by default OS out there today."
