Hey, I have nothing to complain about. I had both ISO's inside of 2.5 hours. I was averaging almost 400 Kbps from carroll.cac.psu.edu. Of course, I live within 50 miles of the Penn State campus.

Hey, I have nothing to complain about. I had both ISO's inside of 2.5 hours. I was averaging almost 400 Kbps from carroll.cac.psu.edu. Of wow - but you forgot a CD :). I'm getting 136 kbps here using a swedish mirror. Not too bad, considering the statement on Mandrake's download page saying all the mirrors are overloaded.

Re: [newbie] 9.1 final has been released
wow. thanks to Anders Linds, bob, and David E Fox for all the ftp sources. You're welcome. I guess you're on a modem? FWIW some months ago I posted a script I found whilst looking for fast kde cvsup mirrors. It's a small perl script that compares response times. You might search the archives for it. It seems that adapting it to mandrake mirrors would not be too difficult. I'll repost the file if there's interest. Want to buy your Pack or Services from MandrakeSoft?

They just didn't like Mandrake being ahead of them. :) But Mandrake IS ahead of them! RedHat's going to version 9 - and Mandrake is already at 9.1 !!! So they're ahead by a whole .1 !!! On another note, bear in mind that RedHat 8.0 thru 9 - both (or all three if you take into account the 8.1 beta code-named Phoebe) do not have the ability to either play a DVD or play an MP3 - you have to get that stuff from ELSEWHERE and install it yourself. Bloody Oath! At least WINDOWS has the ability to play an MP3 right outtada box! How lame, how lame... I've watched in the past year how things moved from RH 7.2 to 7.3, then directly to 8.0 - momentarily to 8.1beta, and now to 9. That certainly does not solidify my faith in a stable OS/distro. They're playing marketing games and blowing off the end users.
