Does FreeBSD, Inc. have some special deal set up with VMWare? AFAIK VMWare has always been commercial (pay) software, yet it's in the ports collection. I'm not complaining, but what's up with that? Also, there is a note on VMWare's web site stating "On Dec. 4 our company will discontinue the current hobbyist pricing and begin charging a standard $299 fee..." Will this policy change on their part have any effect on VMWare's existence as a port? Thanks. -- Chris Hill chris@monochrome.org [1] Bus error netscape To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
