I agree. It would be nice to get an e-mail/notice on the LM homepage/whatever 
about when to expect the boxed sets. However, my experience has been that 
it gets here just about when they said that it would, so I'm not worried. 
Yet. Mandrake does a helluva good job on The Really Important 
Matters, but its customer relations could stand some improvement. Maybe once 
their cash flow improves....

Given that your doorstep is a canal barge, I understand your concern.  ;^)

Harm, try looking at it this way: When we do get our boxes, those of us 
who've chosen to go the boxed set route will have a better idea as to the 
challenges that lay ahead. Not having high speed access isn't all bad. We 
don't have to mess with md5sums, burning CD's, humongeous downloads, etc. For 
me, that's a fair exchange. ymmv
