Aren't DVD sets available for purchase off of www.distrowatch.com? I'm not sure
where Mike stands as far as being able to purchase them, but they should be
available for a decent price. I remember when you could get a bunch of
different distros all in one from I *think* it was www.cheapbytes.com (I'll
have to see if they are even still around).
I guess the point is, if one has a few bucks to spare it might be worth doing
that rather than waiting for a download for an 8 cd set.
