OpenBSD 4.7 Preorders Are Up

Posted by timothy on from the so-you're-in-favor-then? dept.

badger.foo writes "The OpenBSD 4.7 pre-orders are up. That means the release is done, sent off to CD production, and snapshots will turn -current again. Order now and you more likely than not will have your CD set, T-shirt or other cool stuff before the official release date. You get the chance to support the most important free software project on the planet, and get your hands on some cool playables and wearables early. The release page is still being filled in, but the changelog has detailed information about the goodies in this release."

    No. MacOS isn't BSD.

    No offence, but I used Fedore once, after two days it upgraded the kernel (automatically, security update), then it could not boot anymore. Never used Fedora/RedHat/CentOS since. *buntu upgrades never worked flawlessly either, though.

    Sure am glad that Linux and other open source projects never have security holes like that.
