I went to Fry's Electronics the other day to get a video capture card and cam to take some vids of my 8 month old son and stuff. There I found tons and tons of boxes of different Red Hat Linux packages. One was deamed as the "Red Hat Linux Server" edition, and the others were named something else that I can't remember right now. Anyways, they were all nicely boxed with neat screenshots and stuff like that. Basically, they looked good enough for passing as real commercial software. Somthing that corporate suits would be interested in perhaps. It just really bummed me out because I haven't seen FreeBSD promoted and packaged in the same manner. :( Is there something that we can do about this?
