# Someone gave me that link:

# http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/tg/stores/detail/-/books/0672322064/reviews/026-3267638-8681234
#
# Read the Synopsis section.
# They say "FreeBSD is a freely available Linux system based on the
# 4.4BSD distribution from the University of California."
#
# I think it's a typo, but a bad one :)
#
# Well, I don't really know where to complain, and I'm quite sure my mail

Amazon.com had FreeBSD 3.4 and 4.2 listed under Religious software at
one point in time, I sent them an message using their web form, and
after a couple of e-mail exchanges, they fixed the mistake.

The form that you can use to submit the inquiry to is:

http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/handle-generic-form/026-4825662-7176409?action=next-page&target=stores/help/self-service-email-form-dispatch.html&display=comments&browse=1061812&method=GET&cgi-post-result=1

Hopefully the staff that handles the UK store is as helpful and
responsive as the person who handled my comments.
