obtaining Cygwin on CD

2003-03-03 Thread Robert E A Harvey
Even thought I have a 128K connection, I cannot download Cygwin as there is a 2-hour disconnect on my service provider. I would also like to support the operation a bit. Does the organisation sell CDs of the downloadable image? Regards Bob Harvey [EMAIL PROTECTED]
