Well, that's gotta be right!! I must be on the B or C list :( (:))

The last time we downloaded (8.1.7) the 580mb file took us two days to
download :( Due to the line dropping and having to be restarted etc. So I
can't imagine how long it would take for 1.1gig!

Luckily an EXTREMELY gracious list member (they know who they are) has
downloaded from a high speed line they have available to them, and is going
to ship the cds over to me!

THANKS AGAIN!! :)

Mark

Mark,

Perhaps Oracle have an A and B list.  The A list are told as soon as its
out, so they can download it
quickly.  Then the larger B list is told, and they struggle to download it
due to demand :-)

I too registered to be told when 9i was available for W2k; as soon as I
heard about it on the list yesterday morining
I started "GetRight" to download it.  When I came in at Lunchtime today it
was all downloaded - I was amazed !

Good luck and I hope someone else pays your phone bill!

You know, this list is the greatest! I specifically submitted my name to
the
OTN site, to be told *apparently* "as soon as the version I am interested
in
is released" - which was 9i for Win2K. Guess what? The first I hear of this
being released was HERE!! Still haven't heard anything from Oracle!!

Now all I have to do is log on for 3 weeks to try and download it over my
56k modem :)

<RANT>

I can't believe that that the download is over a GIG in size!! 8.1.7 was
only close to 600 or so meg! We can't get Broadband services here either!
In
a CITY! Though I hear of people all around the country (even residencies)
and small TOWNS etc. that can get ADSL, but here we are in a CITY and a
BUSINESS wanting to get the service, and BT can't supply it to us!! Neither
can NTL, because BT haven't installed it in our exchange!! Did I mention we
are in a CITY?!?!

Grumble grumble, moan, grumble, humph...

I think you just have to keep trying.  Maybe at different times.  I
experienced the same as you but with the 9i for Linux download.
