Indeed, they are crazy expensive...
Will begin with Absolute FreeBSD and take a look at recent forum / blog posts for now.
Maybe I will send an email to the author, asking if he plans to release the ebooks (who knows)...

FreeBSD also has an excellent handbook (though it's not kept up to date as much as it should be). I use it as my daily driver OS since Apple locked things down too much for me and am very happy with it. The thing I like the most is that it's one OS that does things one way, not like the fragmentation of Linux where every distro is different.
But I use every OS pretty much every day :) I like it that way.
But I wasn't aware of Absolute FreeBSD very much (I probably have heard of it before as the cover looks familiar). Will definitely get it, thanks for the tip!
FreeBSD is a great OS! I don't like so much Linux distributions - way too much fragmented too, and I just want something that "just works" and not "barely works". Also, coming from *BSD, Linux is too messy for me... just my opinion :)
I used FreeBSD on a Thinkpad when I was in college but switched to mac as I became annoyed by Thinkpad and wanted a MacBook Air like computer...
