It's not the disk space that's the issue. I was complaining about the time and manual effort involved with downloading multiple 80 MB files vs. downloading one 20 MB file to have JRE up and running when doing a system installation from scratch. I have a 256K DSL connection, so it's not trivial. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
