Wes, I did and from what I can tell SW Tech is charging approx. $500 more for a FreeBSD system over a Linux system. (same hardware with slight modifications which price out the same). I couldn't tell why so I sent them snail mail (their cgi script crapped out and dumped my question) about it. Maybe I just don't know how to push buttons but $500 for a FreeBSD machine (same motherboard, case, CD, modem, HD, SCSI interface etc), I would really have to like BSD to pay and extra $500 for a free OS. -- Keith ------------------------------------------------------- Keith Leonard - kleon@bellsouth.net Webmaster - http://www.rexart.com - Rex Art Supplies ------------------------------------------------------- Character is what you are in the dark - John Warfin -------------------------------------------------------
