Look -- the 1 CD distribution shouldn't be considered a plus.
Look at InfoMagic's 4 cd set -- selling like hotcakes.
How about 1 CD -- install and sources
1 CD Ports and Applications and Commercial Demos.
When FreeBSD takes off like Linux we'll have the 4 CD boxed set too!
Take a look at the InfoMagic support phone number arrangement and
install booklet. I'm a subscriber to their service for Linux and
it's EXCELLENT.
Folks -- comparison shop the competition! (Well, not really competition)
