> Since the origins of Berkeley Software Distribution (BSD) UNIX  in the
> 1970's, BSD has been a consistent force among the  backroom servers of
> the world, powering internet service  providers, hosting 
> firms, and web
> sites such as Yahoo! and  2600.com.  NYCBUG works to assist current
> users, those  interested in learning more about this fundamental
> operating  system family and various other BSD projects, and 
> to provide
> a  channel for community interaction.
> 
> We look forward to supporting the BSD community in a variety 
> of  ways in
> the coming months and years.  Please join us in making  NYCBUG a
