I see your point, especially after installing NetBSD on my new computer and having big problems, like not being able to startx or not neing able to boot at all. On the old computer, I also had big problems with NetBSD, including release, stable and current versions. Building FreeBSD or NetBSD from source might be not feasible on older computers short on RAM and/or disk space. There are more frequent current FreeBSD snapshots available on http://pub.allbsd.org/pub/FreeBSD-snapshots/ This site also has snapshots for other BSDs. Tom
