Re: FreeBSD stickers?
Steve Rikli wrote: Are the original FreeBSD sticker sheets still available anywhere? I'm thinking of the approx 4"x6" label sheet, and it had 2 larger "Powered By" stickers, 3 smaller white "Powered By" stickers, and then a half dozen little PC case badge-sized "Powered By" and/or Beastie stickers. These used to come gratis with the official CD sets IIRC. The "domed" PC case badges available from various places are great, but the "Powered By" sticker sheets were nice when you had a stack of systems to sorta show off a little. ;-) cheers, sr.

Christer Hermansson It's a lot of names around us, not only in the computer world, that has become less suitable during the time because of progress and other things, but still is in use because of different factors. I missed to write in my first mail that I also have the feeling (maybe I'm wrong) that "x86" is more recognized / common in the media nowadays. However in this case maybe it's best to keep "i386" because a lot of things depends on this name and it would be a lot of work/problems to change it. This was just one thought I had but it seems to be a bad one.
