I really don't mind simple commercials like this on the list, but I'd point out that buying from these guys doesn't generate revenue to Walnut Creek, and I suspect none to the FreeBSD organization either. I figure my subscription money is well worthwhile to support that worthy bunch. i agree with you. Nonetheless FreeBSD is happy to have CheapBytes produing CD as well as Walnut Creek. The important point is to get FreeBSD into as many hands as possible. Those who buy from CheapBytes would not spend the money needed to buy from Walnut Creek. So we feel that the result is to increase the exposure that FreeBSD receives. jmb This is the moderated mailing list freebsd-announce. The list contains announcements of new FreeBSD capabilities, important events and project milestones.
