   I don't want anyone to jump through the deadicated lines and rip my throat
   out, but I am imformed by relieable sources that 386BSD will come with full
   Laserwriter support, and a free toner cartrige.  Version 1.0, that is.

No no no...  386BSD 1.0 comes with an actual LaserWriter, and a
live-in Apple support technician.  Plus a free Apple Newton, which
also runs 386BSD 1.0.  And don't forget the Ginsu steak knives...

"Watch how thin it still slices through this tomato after sawing in
half three off-road vehicles and carving our initials in the
sidewalk...  Amazing!"
