- I'd second Bdale's comment. More importantly, why comp.os.386bsd, why
- not comp.os.bsd.386, or to avoid the confusion with BSDI's product,
- comp.os.bsd.386bsd. Why do I say this, other than to burn inodes? Well, what
- about comp.os.bsd.sparc and comp.os.bsd.mips? I hope that there will
- eventually be free BSD based systems for more than just intel x86 based
- architectures. Heck, there are already.
