Hi Folks -

I am not sure if this has been covered before, but I checked the
recent postings, and didn't see anything, so here goes...

I was doing an archie last night for mosaic, and while I saw
a version for linux, I didn't see anything *BSD specific (I
am running FreeBSD 1.1G).  I was wondering if anyone knows
of a location for a ported version?

Also, how does it compare, speedwise, with the DOS Windows 
version?  Some PC enthusiasts here have been claiming that
the Windows version should be much more optimized and faster,
but I just don't see their reasoning...

Thanks for any info that you can offer...
