Corvin,
I wasn't suggesting you were. It's cool. I was just wanting some
more thought out reasons why there should be a guru edition for
people with broadband connections that included 6 CD's. After all
the point was that they had broadband and could download most
everything after the base system is installed. I wouldn't worry
about the freeBSD thing. I happen to know a lot of developers that
work on it as well..and those guys work really hard as well. It
think we should all think of OSS as one big family..people take
different roads to get through life...for us it's SuSE :)
Kind Regards,
