> one other thing which may be more important ... like buying netbsd cds ...

Not to toot my own horn or anything, but I've been producing CDs
(originally called `the official NetBSD CDs' when I was doing it with
Herb, now under the `NetBSD Mission' label) for over 3 years now.  You
can purchase them through DaemonNewsMall.

So far this operation has been a net loss, but if it ever *does* make
money, it will go toward advertising and supporting development
(mostly related to ease of installation, I expect).
