FreeBSD people, For Your Info: OEM Magazine, October 1995, Page 8, Column 2 has a letter I wrote My letter basically : - Criticised a published article that placed reliance on quantity of commercial Unix licenses sold, to predict the imminent demise of Unix, in favour of NT. - Pointed at the thriving non commercial Unix variants, that need no licenses, & that no manufacturer trumpets sales figures for. - Hyped _FreeBSD_ in particular & referenced wcarchive@cdrom.com (as a FreeBSD host), http://www.freebsd.org , ^^^ (typo. in magazine, maybe from my original email) sales@cdrom.com , & hackers@freebsd.org There's also a reply from the chap who's OEM 7/8-95 OS feature I criticised. I don't have machine readable copies (except perhaps on a backup tape) but the magazine has a web page http:/tech-web.cmp.com/oem (maybe it's there, haven't looked, bad net connection at present) PS I suggest not stripping these CCs from this mail: jhs@freebsd.org & n1epo4tl@ibmmail.com not on hackers list core@freebsd.org some not on hackers list Julian H.
