I don't want to criticise, but in no way does buying a CD of FreeBSD defeat the "free"ness -- Does photocopying a freely distributable newsletter make it less free because you have to pay for the toner and paper? It's unfortunate that in english we don't have two commonly used and distinct words for free(cost) and free(liberty)... A happy and prosperous New Year to all at FreeBSD.org, and thanks for a wonderful tool! Tim
