We started converting our "Point of Sale" system from ESIX (SVR4 variant)
to FreeBSD several months ago.  We're using 486 SCSI boxes with 8MB of RAM
to handle receipts and inventory, which then report nightly to one of two
main offices via uucp.  I just dialed into the first system we upgraded:

Script done on Tue Apr 30 13:30:12 1996
(running 2.1-RELEASE)

Due to the success we've had with FreeBSD in the stores, we're now in the
process of converting one of our 2 main offices to FreeBSD (-stable), and
expect (hope) to have it done within 2 weeks.

Great Job!!!

(Jordan, I know I said I'd help, and I still intend to; it's strictly a
matter of available time, not lack of desire).  (Bet you've never heard
that before ;-).
