I looked-over your website, and did +not see a citation for that specific PC (though I did see it for others). > For your reference, my PC has a AMD Athlon(tm) 64 X2 Dual core processor 3800+ 2.01 GHz.

I would like to "hitch" it to the PC using a USB cable. > If version 9.1 does run on that machine, then I may order a copy for myself. > Glen Peterson > Cedarburg, WI. > PetersonTR@aol.com You can go to ftp.freebsd.org/pub/FreeBSD and download iso files for FreeBSD amd64 and i386. You can download FreeBSD 9.1 or the newest release candidate for 9.2 (now RC2) and install from CD or DVD. Is that 80GB hard drive currently in the PC? Tom
