OK, to your question, there are several choices but one I think most as favourable to you is this. Buy CD from somebody else. One I have used before and like is this: www.cheapbytes.com. I just checked and they sell FBSD 4.7 CD at 4.99 US dollars. http://cart.cheapbytes.com/cgi-bin/cart/0070010862.html Or, other method would be to go to www.freebsdmall.com and purchase FBSD kit. If you can spare, then I would recommend you buy "The Complete FreeBSD". Other CDs include live filesystem and other goodies which might or might not needed for you. It is much pricier alternative to cheapbyte. Choice is up to you. To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
