No one installs this from scratch anymore... fact.

+         Yes, I here NETBSD might actually need this space.

It's worth more (so's FreeBSD).

[... lots of JM Jr crap deleted...]

+         Give me a break...

Which leg ???

If you are so concrened then why don;t you put up some money, get a
system that well connected and make the 386BSD 0.1 distribution
available there if you are so concerned.

Remember - you get what you pay for.

All encouragment to the *BSD teams who are actually doing work, unlike
some of us (me included) who just sit back and occasionally critisise.
(ok - I can't spell :-)
