 As long as the laptop has a license sticker on the bottom, you can
 use any XP install CD for the same edition (Home or Professional). 
 SP2 and additional drivers are available online.

Actually that may not be true :(
The OEM versions of XP sometimes use different keys.

It's a real PITA.

USENIX FreeBSD Guru Session

2007-05-30 Thread pete wright

Hi - Just got an email from Usenix and noticed that Kirk will be
giving a Guru is In session on FreeBSD.  I'm hoping Kirk is on this
list, or better yet a usenix rep.

My question is - does anyone know when this session will be?  I've
checked out the Usenix '07 site and have not seen any details
regarding the guru sessions.

thanks!
-pete
