linux india cdrom is an excellent idea. but do we have enough bandwidth to download
huuuuge programs by ftp? or enough money to stay online for hours and hours for the
sake of downloading linux distros, programs? Suresh, i'm saying this from a lower
middleclass internet user's point of view! if one spends time on downloading it, we
might enjoy a heart attack after seeing the telephone bill.
will a linux-cdrom-on-demand work out? isnt it financially more viable?
