Kirk often teaches 1-day or 2-day courses at BSD conferences at a very reasonable price, especially for people working or wanting to work as volunteers for FreeBSD, NetBSD and OpenBSD.

Re: FreeBSD Kernel Internals, lecture video
Training and education generally are. It's still very expensive. $100 I can understand, but $1000 for individuals? Take a look at the courses available on coursera.org, all for free. Take a look at the prices for video/audio courses on thegreatcourses.com. Combined with the fact that these videos were recorded from lectures given to an in-person audience, rather than produced specifically for home viewing, IMHO the price is quite unreasonable. there are no unreasonable price as long as there are buyers :) ___ freebsd-hackers@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-hackers To unsubscribe, send any mail to "freebsd-hackers-unsubscr...@freebsd.org"

These videos are the equivalent of learning about the Constitution from its framers. While some Coursera courses can say the same, they appear to be relatively few. This is also probably a significant portion of Kirk's income. Unlike the universities represented in Coursera, he has no regular day job that I'm aware of. He has no university infrastructure and funding model that is already paying him to create these courses (and just capturing them on the side for online use). Finally, he offers discounts: "Please note that I offer a 25% discount to people that can make a plausible hardship case and a 50% discount to full-time students. Please contact me at mckus...@mckusick.com to verify that you qualify and to get instructions on how to order at the discounted price." I think that this all adds up to the pricing being quite fair.
