They (the CD ISOs) are available as an http download as well as a Torrent... http://en.opensuse.org/Development_Version#Downloads So.. the user does have a choice. OK, granted the DVD ISOs are Torrent only, but... who in their right mind would try to download a 4.8GB DVD ISO over a 56K dialup connection? If you were lucky and had a steady connection with no slowdowns by overhead, that would take a solid week... at least... the realityis, including overhead, more like almost 10 days. By that time the Beta test would be into the next release :-P C. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
