Otherwise, just a couple of games. I don't have a browser either. The HD sure seemed to fill up fast though. I must have clicked on something that I am not aware of. The above distfiles totals around 30 megs. I think I should still have plenty of room. Thanks for your help. Mike ps- my first email sent via FreeBSD!!!! :) pss- My computer roots are the Amiga. I have a A500 and A3000 sitting right here. Since I am using my homebrewed pc on the net, OS2 and FreeBSD get me as close to my beloved Amiga as possible! I really enjoy OS2 Warp! ANYTHING BUT MS!!!! sorry for the yelling, but boy do I feel better!
