In-Reply-To: References: Mime-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Sender: owner-freebsd-newbies@FreeBSD.ORG Precedence: bulk X-Loop: FreeBSD.org Personally I just got it so I could run RADIANCE and remember my student days when we had a SunOS/Solaris network with X :) Plus also to get experience with setting up a Unix from scratch to pad my CV with. I keep meaning to move over from using Windows '95 (I dual-boot, with FreeBSD having a 2Gig drive of its very own), but well, I got everything working on Windows 95 before I found FreeBSD... When I'm rich (hah!) I'm gonna get myself a little FreeBSD network & admin that for the experience, and also to play RPGs with. Get a crunchy machine to act as server, and a slightly less crunchy machine to run Win 9x as a games machine... -- Mike Cugley, lunatic at large http://freespace.virgin.net/michael.cugley/ http://freespace.virgin.net/michael.cugley/Art/ Mike's Doom Quake - http://www.crosswinds.net/dundee/~korvar/ To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-newbies" in the body of the message
