Ah shucks! You went and ruined the beauty of the moment. Telling a customer to wait for the next edition just isn't the same when you're almost out of the first edition. <sillyness> Maybe Jordan can write a letter to Compaq threatening to revoke their license to install FreeBSD if they don't install TCL also too. Then we can have a big argument as to whether TCL is a part of the OS or not. </sillyness> -- David Kelly N4HHE, dkelly@hiwaay.net ===================================================================== The human mind ordinarily operates at only ten percent of its capacity -- the rest is overhead for the operating system.
