Use Torrents. Download speed is enormous
Normally i'd agree. However, my download has been going for over seven hours and I've downloaded a paltry 195MB using the SUSE-10.0-CD-OSS-i386-GM torrent. This on a 2 meg line. It's currently downloading at 3.2 KB/s but has risen from time to time to a network overloading rate of over 10KB/s. What is happening? Is the "EVAL" version proven to be more popular? At this rate I have over a hundred hours to go - that's only a day or two quicker than when I downloaded SuSE 7.3 over a dial up in Africa in early 2002! Regards Craig
