The advantage of FreeBSD over other OS's is that not only can you try it for free, keep it for free if you like it, but you can also use it for free in whole or part for most anything you want without obligation to give away your own work for free. Could do the same with Linux but you would have to hire a lawyer to help you keep GPL from infecting your unique product additions. -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
