For the price, I will settle for 386bsd, and I know of several others in this category. Patch-kit workers, please keep up your good work. Thanks, Mike - you made my day! Charles has some valid points though - just because we're giving our efforts away doesn't make them above criticism. If you can send me reasoned suggestions, I promise that I'll always give them a receptive ear. Vitriol and flames (of which I'm not accusing Charles) I can, however, do without and will probably ignore.
