Anyone have a mirror? the site is dead.
well, since when you buy a computer you invariably get windows [ except
the mandrake pc's from the mandrake store ], we all have the font's
available, and can import them from windows, without breaking any
license or laws.
my personal collection of ms tt fonts is over 1500 fonts.
of course I am importing them to my mandrake boxes.
big noise about getting something we all already have.
You're making an assumption that isn't even close to valid.
Not everyone buys prebuilt boxes with OS installed. There are
VERY MANY people who don't. Windows does not come with mainboards
(yet), so these people do NOT have MS Fonts already.
Although it is generally trivial to get them - Ben's RPM, for example.
