John, If you are willing to shell out a little cash for it, you can order the entire FreeBSD CD set (several versions) plus some extras, and a printed manual, from http://www.freebsdmall.com/. Also, check your local book retail, in many cases, books about FreeBSD come with a recent FreeBSD CD-1 included. Both these options will probably put you back around $50 US or so though. Otherwise, I'd be more than willing to mail it to you, though I have little trust in our postage system here, so I'd have to send it through registered postage, which will probably cost $4 US or so. If you're interested, let me know, if you can transfer me the money for the postage, I'll burn a CD and send it along. Normally I'd just pay for the postage too, but our exchange rate is abit confused at the moment, so the $4 US looks rather ugly in South African Rand tems. Let me know if I can help Will -- Willie Viljoen Freelance IT Consultant 214 Paul Kruger Avenue, Universitas Bloemfontein 9321 South Africa +27 51 522 15 60 +27 51 522 44 36 (after hours) +27 82 404 03 27 (mobile) will@unfoldings.net
