thanks, saugata, for your most generous offer.
since you seem to have cheap access to broadband, let me make a request to 
you. there are many linux programmes, in addition to distro-s, which are so 
large that we who are mostly on dialup cannot think of downloading them. for 
example, there's kde 2.2, the upcoming gnome 2.0, nautilus, the latest stable 
releases of gcc and X, and many, many more. most of us usually have no choice 
but to wait till pcq or some other source provides us with slightly outdated 
versions of these things.
now, if it's all the same to you, could you download-burn-send these things, 
too?
if this is asking too much please say so without hesitating, and i'll shut up 
immediately. but if you can do this without a lot of extra trouble, perhaps 
we could draw up a wishlist.
what do you say, luggers?
