In-Reply-To: <3824AB99.A90271A2@aracnet.com> Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-chat@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org The "official" release, at least in theory, comes from the FreeBSD Project. Walnut Creek duplicates that release, but should certainly not have a monopoly on doing so. If it did, FreeBSD would not be free at all. The packages being sold on EBay are 3.2, not 3.3, which means that they are dumping old inventory. --Brett At 02:28 PM 11/6/1999 -0800, D.M.P. wrote: >I was browsing eBay and found an auction for a FreeBSD 3.2 set: > >http://cgi.ebay.com/aw-cgi/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=194999650 > >Look at the image, it says "Official Release by Greenbay CDROM".
