I'm envious :-) But first things first... There's a lot of people at freebsd-questions@freebsd.org who can help you if you send your question there. That's where all of the support happens. Also take a look at http://www.welearn.com.au/freebsd/newbies/ to find out what we do here. By the way, we've been chatting about the different ways that we newbies use FreeBSD. None of us have mentioned using a laptop yet! Would you like to tell us what you're using your FreeBSD for? -- Regards, -*Sue*- To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
