You could always run Ubuntu instead ;-)

As you are all well aware the new Mac OS X Mountain Lion has come out (and I am sure by now you guys know the question I am about to ask) and the ISO is 4.3GB in size. I have already purchased the app in the Mac Store (USD$20) but due to the file size, it can be a bit of a problem for a couple of reasons: 1. Purchasing of a bundle large enough to accommodate the download is pretty pricey; 2. The need for a stable connection. Apparently, the Mac App store does not have resume. I downloaded 20MB just to demo and apparently if you pause the download, on resume it will start from the beginning all over again. Our 3G has been quite unstable for the past couple of weeks and one does not want to reach 99.999999% and *boom!* it disconnects. 3. Have to use my laptop as the download only uses the Mac app store (that is on Mac). There is no alternative like performing it on a Windows/*NIX machine and then transferring the ISO. So was wondering whether anyone knows of a good internet cafe where I can plug in my machine and sip a good "cuppa jo" (cup of coffee) as I watch the progress bar speed to the end... or if not a cafe anywhere else where I can get good speed at a fair price would be great too.
