      Yeah, this is gonna be cool.

      Pre-orders can be placed at www.openbsdstore.com.

      Free and open-source is a benefit that I am glad to pay $35 for. Plus I like the stickers

        Did that already; not often that I donate money instead of time or code to a free software project, but I think LibreSSL, OpenSSH, etc. are so important to our future.

          I also preordered. I use OpenBSD as one of my desktop systems, running with XFCE. Works great.


          And ext4 read support!

            Great to see open source progressing. BSD and Linux alike.

                Wrong son, Linux is free and open source. BSD is open core and public domain. "Progress" for BSD is not progress for free and open source and it also does not benefit anyone because whatever new thing BSD has, Linux has for 10 years. Literally.

                  Stop spamming Linux forums with annoying BSD ads.

                    You just made 3 posts in a row parroting FSF slogans in a BSD thread. You may want to reconsider who's spamming/trolling here...
