True, and I did also post to -advocacy... the reason fr the post to -isp is that a while ago, there was a thread about ISP's and donations to the FBSD project, and I thought that this would be relevant to that in a certain respect. If you read the page about that card, part of the purchases go towards a designated fund, which if FBSD were to do something like this, just think of the revenues that could be generated by ISP's, corporations, and individuals using their 'FreeBSD Visa card'. Think about corporate cards and the like, and the money that is spent on them... |^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^| | Gary D.
