Your best bet is to order a cd set from someplace that does that for not much more than the cost of the cd's and postage. Or find a friend already running linux, and who has a burner to make them for you. I swear, after all the ruckus that been raised about using windows to download something, that M$ would fix that. But in 15 years they haven't. Wouldn't want to be able to download a pirated program now you see. Just one more reason to get away, as far away as you can get, from anything M$ related. -- Cheers, Gene "There are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty: soap, ballot, jury, and ammo.
