I hope there are many in such groups to offer help absolutely free(atleast to the basic installation stage). You can also ask them for Boot Floppies :) Pls take a look at http://www.freebsd.org/support.html#user regards Ganesh Kumar On Fri, 2 Aug 2002, Patricia Earlene Record wrote: > I was wondering. I am a single mother of three trying to find a new operating system for my laptop to free up my computer for my children. However, i am unable to purchase operating software because it is just to expensive and i cant afford to. I was reading your web site and was wondering if you had a free version of this on 3.5 floppy disks. My laptop only has floppy. if you could help please let me know.
