One thing that needs to be done is to start taking up a collection to help openSuSE buy some modern servers so they can through away their 286's. And then buy a better internet connection. I'm not rich by any means but I could chip in some. "IF" there were two DVD's, and actually I do like the idea of having two DVD's, I'm not so sure I would want to dedicate two or three days to downloading them. It's bad enough having to pray that nothing goes wrong for the twenty-some hours it takes to download one. BEFORE you start griping that my connection is slow. It IS NOT slow. On some severs I can get a 96/100kbs download speed connection. On one I actually had almost 130kbs download speed. On openSuSE I usually get about dial up speed downloads. If the problem is not on my end it must be on the other. I understand about connection loads but still ............. dial-up speeds ............ come on! They need to upgrade before they even consider doing anything about two DVD's. - - (o:]>*HUGGLES*<[:o) Billie Walsh The three best words in the English Language: "I LOVE YOU" Pass them on! -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
