FreeBSD has long been promoted as free. It is hard for me to imagine how the word "owe" can be associated with the word "free". But then, here in the US, I've run into alot of "free" things in which you really "owe". So perhaps I am out-of-step with the modern meaning of the word free. For the benefit of the aged, like myself, perhaps you could change the name. 8-) -- Brian Litzinger Powered by FreeBSD <brian@mediacity.com> http[s]://www.mpress.com
