I got my FreeBSD via buying "The Complete FreeBSD" book, so I don't know
about other distributions eg. Walnut Creek etc.

Do we have a shrink wrapped box similar to Red Hat Linux that could be sold
through computer stores?

If not, and a company wanted to provide that, could they do it?  In other
words, have the boxes printed, burn CD's from a particular release of
FreeBSD and distribute it.  Could they put XYZ FreeBSD on the box or is
that a really bad idea (I'm not suggesting different distributions, just
labelling)?  Would Greg provide a slimmer version of his book that could
fit in a standard box? Maybe Walnut Creek's distro is what I'm looking for,
but I haven't seen it.
