If you do not have an cable or dsl or some kind of 24/7 internet
connection it will take for ever to download the .iso  file that you
build the install cd from. You have to have cd burner to create your
own cd.  For ever is days and not hours, that is if the server does
not time-out your session or some other reason that you drop your
connection.  The best thing to do is order the single install cd
from

=C1ConcQa0UBCF   for $3.00

or  http://cart.cheapbytes.com/cgi-bin/cart  for $5.00

Subject: FreeBSD. Should I buy or download?

Hi there,

                                     Is it best to buy a boxed
FreeBSD?
or download it?

Steven.
