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?

I can't for the life of me figure why anyone would want a torrent download. I tried it and the best I could get was about 1Kbs, that's right, ONE (1) KILOBITE A SECOND. That's abut a weeks worth of download. AND it's not just OpenSuSE severs that are messed up. I tried Freespire DVD torrent download with just about the same results.

I scratched around a bit and found an FTP site listed in the VERY fine print for OpenSuSE. In about four hours I had the whole DVD downloaded via Kget. Much the same story for Freespire, but it only took about three hours from one of their mirrors with Kget.
