Considering you asked in a freebsd newsgroup I am directing you to
http://www.freebsdmall.com/cgi-bin/fm
where you may purchase FreeBSD on CD and at the same time contribute
to the development costs of this fine operating system.

When I was poor I used to buy from cheapbytes.com. They are very inexpensive
and service was good - its been a while since I used them (thank goodness!).

What is wrong with ftp for you?

The likelihood of someone mailing a CD is low. Its an awful lot of data.
