There are so many people here in FreeBSD mailing. And many people are
professional about FreeBSD, I think. I also use FreeBSD as main desktop.
But I have no such good knowledge for FreeBSD. I just use -RELEASE
branch every time. So pkg_add/pkg_delete is everything what I know.

am now a biology student of a small university, as graduate course. But
there is no FreeBSD's role in my work. All work is performed by
MS-Windows.. My FreeBSD box is just as good as dummy. It's sad story.
What can I do for my work with FreeBSD? I'm really want to do my work
with FreeBSD.. word-processing, printing, statistics, ...

Could you please give me some advice..? I'm tired now, however, I'm
willing to listen to any comments.. any complain.. any thing.. for
advance..

Sincerely,

If you want to use FreeBSD for your work, you should first find out
what tasks your work
requires and then try to accomplish them on FreeBSD.
For example, for your word processing work OpenOffice or Abiword would
be suitable.

Cheers, Zafer.

Yes I agree with Zafer, list what you will do with your workstation and from there you can build a software list by either asking (as you have) or using the ports page. Using keywords you can find a vast number of applications for most day-to-day tasks and even those once in a blue moon tasks.

Just give the ports page ( http://www.freebsd.org/ports/ ) a search :)

Cheers,
Jayton
