NetBSD Online Store Opens

jschauma writes "The NetBSD Project now has an online store where you can indulge yourself in some merchandise-mania and at the same time support your favorite OS. All profits from the store will of course go directly to the NetBSD Foundation; at the moment, the available items include t-shirts, sweatshirts, mugs, clocks, mousepads, logo pads and tote bags. The sale of printed versions of The NetBSD Guide and the pkgsrc Guide is currently being evaluated. For other ways to make a tax-deductible (in the US) donation, please see the donations page."
