How does a 3CD download compare to a standard FTP installation with
boot.iso when you look at FTP-load?

download.
If you do a standard KDE installation, you don't need to download the
Gnome stuff. If you do the Gnome standard, you don't need to download KDE
stuff.
So from a users point of view, using the boot.iso is a better option.
It could be (please tell) that 3 large ISO's is better for the FTP server
then a lot of small ones. Naturaly it will depend if all iso's can fit
into memory and if there is enough bandwitdh available. So it might vary
from server to server.
