1) Any GNU software is freely distributable.  Hence, if you
want to divide the cost among several friends and use the same
installation disks, then that is perfectly legal and a nice way to
save money!

2) We do not just download the SLS.  The system is installed on a
486/50DX 16MB machine and on a 386/16SX 4MB machine to make sure that
the new release is stable.  If not, we fix things to make it more
stable and useable.

Linux is free and can be obtained from numerous ftp sites such as
tsx-11.mit.edu and sunsite.unc.edu under GNU license.

Downloading the entire SLS with a 9600 baud connection takes about 8
hours, and with a 2400 baud connection about 20 hours.  Instead of
wasting all this time and energy order the entire SLS on disks for a
modest price:


	US$1.5 	copying charge per disk
	US$1.2 	per 3 1/2 disk
	US$1.0 	per 5 1/4 disk

	US$10.0   Shipping and handling 


Your *TOTAL* price (includes shipping costs)       
Series		#Disks		(3 1/2)		(5 1/2)	     
a		4		$20.80	  	$20.00		
a,b,c,d		16		$53.20		$50.00		
a,b,c,d,x	26		$80.20		$75.00		
a,b,c,d,x,t,s	30		$91.00		$85.00		
(all prices are in US$, not including Tax if in MA)

Of course one can order individual disks, series or any combinations.
Prices may change at any time without notice.  Please add 5% tax, if in
MA.

To order:
		Mail a check or money order in advance 
		for the	entire sum, and receive the disks
		UPS.

NOTE: All disks are verified *twice* before they are mailed.  All
shipment leave us within a week with a blue UPS label (2nd day air) or
Air-Mail, as appropriate.

	Also available is our SLS accessory disk which contains
	all the necessary utilities to setup partitions, setup
	up sls to boot from HD (easily), and a few more
	invaluable dos/linux utils that do not come
	with the SLS and are certainly necessary to complete
	the integration: $1.5 copying charge, $1.0 for 5 1/4 disk
	or $1.2 for 3 1/2 disk.

	If you order the entire sls disks series you will also
	receive a laser printed copy of the necessary README
	files for installation, and you get free technical
	support for 30 days via email on installation issues.

        When a new version of the SLS is available, you may
        send back your disks to receive a copy of the new
        version.  You will only be charged with a copy charge
        of the usual $1.5 per disk updated.  If any of your disks
        becomes defective by the time it reaches us, we will
        replace it for you with the usual $1.0 for 5 1/2 or $1.2
        for 3 1/4 for each defective disk.

	Do not waste time downloading something of that size,
	order it-- it's worth it.
