[-- Attachment #1 --]
    Well, I'm preparing to build another computer and I am considering running FreeBSD on it.  Though my question is how do I download it properly from a Windows based PC?  I will be using the diskette installation method, until I'm sure I'll keep it, then I plan to purchase the book from Walnut Creek CD-ROM that contains the CD's and shareware.

    what would be my steps to retrieve it(and exactly which version) using an ftp utility such as ws_ftp95 that offers a binary transfer?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you,
Bill
