Jeff, I want to update to the new version on a machine not connected to the internet.When I went to the link on the page you gave below I got several choices. Release Release.gpg Release.gz
The others have different dates so I assume I dont want them. Does .gz mean its compressed? Which one of these would I load on a USB stick and take to the machine? Or do I need them all? Be kind its my first update.
