The place to get FreeBSD CDs in Tokyo is Plat'Home in Akihabara. They have a page at http://www.plathome.co.jp/, or you can look them up on the Akihabara site at http://www.akiba.or.jp/list/index.html and use their map to find it. You should call in advance to check on stock--I was there a few days ago and it didn't look like they had 4.2, yet. Their number is 03-3251-7611. Or better yet, sign up for the FreeBSD subscription from WC. After paying int'l shipping, each release arrives in your mailbox for about US$35. That's just about what you'll pay at Plat'Home, you don't have to deal with the crowds, and I suspect more money goes to the project. And you get free stickers ;) Though, ironically, I find that Plat'Home often has new releases on the shelves before I see my discs in the mail... grrrrr. The sites above are Japanese only, unfortunately... if you have troubles, email me directly and I'll send you the details. I'd love to make contact with another English-speaking FreeBSD enthusiast here in town, anyway.
