i don't know if this is a legal thing to ask, but could i get someone to burn me a copy of this? I understand that the program is downloadable for free, so i assume burning it is legal. I'd buy from them but i don't want to pay $20 to expermiment with linux. anyway, i'd be more then happy to send the cd's to you and include a pre postaged envelope, i'd just like to try out linux....

if what i've suggested is illegal, please, ignore this post.

thanks a lot for the offers, but i ended up being able to start a download at my work place on a T-1 right after i left work to download overnight, both cd's should be done well before morning comes. But thanks anyway!

also does it come with nvidia Geforce 2 GTS drivers? or do i need to download these seperately and how do i do so if i need to? I know windows inside and out, but linux is a whole new world to me...

It is very legal and encouraged to copy as much as one wants http://www.sysopt.com/forum/smile.gif

Could anyone burn me those cd's b/c I'm having enough trouble upgrading Xfree86.


Also does Linux Mandrake 8 support the ATI All-in-Wonder Radeon?
