  7. The Free Software Foundation has been repeatedly asked to create a
  8. package that provides executables for all of our software. Usually we
  9. offer only sources. In addition to providing binaries with the source
  10. code, the Deluxe Distribution includes copies of all our printed
  11. manuals.
  12. <P>
  13. The FSF Deluxe Distribution contains the binaries and sources to
  14. hundreds of different programs including GNU Emacs, the GNU C Compiler,
  15. the GNU Debugger, the complete MIT X Window System, and the GNU
  16. utilities.
  17. <P>
  18. You may choose one of these machines and operating systems: HP 9000
  19. series 200, 300, 700, or 800 (4.3 BSD or HP-UX); RS/6000 (AIX); Sony
  20. NEWS 68k (4.3 BSD or NewsOS 4); Sun 3, 4, or SPARC (SunOS 4 or Solaris).
  21. If your machine or system is not listed, or if a specific program has
  22. not been ported to that machine, please call the FSF office at the phone
  23. number below or send e-mail to <CODE>gnu@prep.ai.mit.edu</CODE>.

  37. In addition to the printed and on-line documentation, every Deluxe
  38. Distribution includes a CD-ROM (in ISO 9660 format with Rock Ridge
  39. extensions) that contains sources of our software.
