Submission + - FreeBSD Foundation Auction (ebay.com)

agshekeloh writes: "We're auctioning off the very first copy of Absolute FreeBSD off the press as a fundraiser for the FreeBSD Foundation. If you've been waiting for the right opportunity to open up your checkbook and support the Foundation, this is it!

Your generous donation will get you a book before anyone else in the world, signed by the author. The winner will also receive an authentic laser-printed Certificate of Authenticity, suitable for framing or absorbing spilled cola.

The day the book is done the author will drive to the printer and pick up a copy and ship it to the generous winner. This means that you'll get your copy before the other copies arrive at the distributor, let alone in stores.

100% of the auction proceeds go to the FreeBSD Foundation, of course."

Comment Re:Should rename the book (Score 1) 157

title soon to become "PGP & GPG: encryption for the practical suspicious target of the homeland security dept."

(Caveat: I'm the author of the book)

I thought about such a subtitle, but the book is not just for the average person. Rich Americans can read it, too.
