I conversed with someone having to download updates in a library, then take the disk to home far away.
That is one possibility. Another might be that someone volunteers. The problem with volunteering is that the volunteer might get swamped with requests and some of those requests might come from people who are network-capable but too lazy to download and burn a DVD themselves.
*sigh*
Doing the first installation is doable with the DVD even on places with little network. Libraries, schools, friends... Even on countries like Cuba: someone brings the dvd or usb stick on a travel. The problem is updates later, if you only have a modem or nothing. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
