Firefly BSD is a commercially-supported operating system based on the experimental DragonFlyBSD fork of FreeBSD. It comes with complete source and binaries for the kernel, compiler, libraries, and user utilities. In addition, thousands of contributed programs have been ported to Firefly BSD and are included in the 4-CDROM set. It is developed (or at least sold) by Steven David Rhodus, and costs $12.95. Proceeds will help DragonFlyBSD, suggesting the two are still very closely related. The website of Firefly BSD Inc. (fireflybsd.com[1]) has vanished from the web and instead its domain name is now used for advertising, probably because of its well-known URL.
