"Freeware and shareware vendor Walnut Creek CDROM has added FreeBSD 2.0.5 to its offerings. FreeBSD is a UNIX-like OS for Intel Corp. microprocessor-based PCs. The product is not unlike Linux, the well-known UNIX-like OS for PCs that is freely available from a number of sources; however, FreeBSD is derived from the Berkeley Standard Distribution of UNIX from the University of California at Berkeley. FreeBSD 2.0.5 is freely available from a variety of sources, but Walnut Creek offers it in a two-CD-ROM set with technical support. Pricing at $3995." Either they were a *tad* bit behind on there announcement or they screwed up the release number. Either way, good publicity! -- Charles Green, PRC Inc. UN*X System Administration 22 Powell Ave. Apt.
