A brief look through your (in-progress) article, I found the following information as outdated (afaik): --- 6.2 Browsers FreeBSD does not come with a particular browser pre-installed. Instead, the www ports collection contains a lot of browsers ready to be installed. If you don't have time to compile everything (this can be very long in some cases) many of them are available as packages. --- The FreeBSD Project does not provide X11 desktops as "packages" anymore. I am not sure if they are still provided on CD-ROMs or not. Everything else looks nice; it was only a brief look though. -- Hiten __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
