FreeBSD XP^H^H 4.5 available now

Posted by Nik on from the this-time,-with-feeling dept.

The_Rift was one of many who wrote in with this news: "The official mail has gone out to the FreeBSD-announce mailing list announcing the availability of Freebsd 4.5. Check your local mirrors for the ISOs.". The release notes have all the details, but take it from me -- this one is worth it just for the TCP/IP performance improvements by Matt Dillon and others. Kudos to Murray, Bruce, and the rest of the release engineering team.

    How does FBsd rate when it comes to ISDN?
    Will it run OK on a Pentium 90 with 16MB of RAM?

    As a rabid Buffy Fan, I respectfully request this is changed to 'Once more with feeling', just because it would have made me laugh.
