It wouldn't take much effort for me to create/send you a few CD's. How about FreeBSD 4.11 and 5.4? I found DesktopBSD (http://www.desktopbsd.net/) pretty slick as well. It would be cool to throw that one in the mix. If by now you haven't already sourced your FreeBSD CD's, feel free to email me back and I'll start burning media and lickin stamps Take care Steve Quinn __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
