Did you see that in announce? The next stable release is 13 cd's. That just about prevents all people on 56kb modems (many in the so-called "third" world) from downloading them and will I ever see the set if I "order" them in Mexico by mail?


So what?  RTFM and you would know that in the vast majority of cases
you only need the first CD and a network connection.  Yeah, installing
over a modem sucks rocks, but I've done it several times.  The trick
is get it to where it's time to download packages just before you go
do something time-consuming like head to work or go to sleep.


Kind of like installing gentoo, only faster!
