Hello:

I am new to the BSD movement. I have followed it from a far for a while and now am in the position to make the move (Completely, 100% no looking back!)

I have  purchased FreeBSD Unleashed (by SAMS) and have loaded it on my ThinkPad 760CD. I now realize that I need to be networked (I'm not talking ether net) in order to shorten my learning curve. I realize I am taking the double whammy (UNIX and BSD) but I think it will be worth it.

I'm amazed there doesn't seem to be a BSD group in the Boston MA area.

What are your suggestions? I am about 25mins west of Boston. I would even start a group and donate my office for meeting space.

Thanks
Frank J. Urro, CM$DO (Chief Microsoft Disposal Officer)
