Hubbard" Sender: owner-freebsd-announce@freebsd.org X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Precedence: bulk some header freebsd-announce "Jordan K. Hubbard" 1.92 The new 4 CD set of FreeBSD 2.2.5 is now in stock and shipping. The back-orders have already been processed and subscription customers should also be receiving their CDs shortly, modulo the usual shipping and customs delays for the international customers. More information is available from http://www.cdrom.com/titles/os/fbsd25.htm so I won't repeat all that information here except to say that the price is the same as usual, $39.95 per CD set or $24.95 with a subscription. [The cdrom.com web site is also a little out of date and should be updated by Monday afternoon, so don't be disconcerted by the banner saying that it's "shipping soon" - that's outdated info] This new 4 CD set also contains a lot of extra goodies, such as a complete unpacked CVS repository, a live filesystem with full sources (for both FreeBSD and XFree86), extra docs, a snapshot of www.freebsd.org, you name it and it's probably there - a full 2.4GB of FreeBSD stuff! :) Walnut Creek CDROM has also brought back the popular 4 color FreeBSD T-shirt with Tatsumi Hosokawa's artwork and will soon have it in stock, though the final price has yet to be determined - it should be somewhere between $15 - $18. Just for something totally new, we will also soon have some rather nice FreeBSD polo shirts sporting an embroidered daemon on the pocket with the word "FreeBSD" below it. These shirts are of very high quality and with a price tag to match - $45.00. Not cheap, but still a great gift item for that special FreeBSD someone in your life this Christmas. :) Jordan This is the moderated mailing list freebsd-announce.
