You'll might want to use 5.0 Beta if you want the most functionality out of it -- as there have been great improvements since 4.0, such as working Function keys, azalia (sound) driver (though this still isn't perfect), wireless compiled in, etc.

Here's a good newb question...where do I get it? I found something under NETBSD-daily but the boot.iso was only 6.2MB, I wasn't sure if that was right since the 4.0.1 iso was 241MB. Did I download the right thing?


EDIT - Disregard. I think I found the right one. I had gone under the i386 folder last time. I went under the iso folder, this time, and found it.
