Perhaps I'm strange this way, but *I* could have downloaded it but prefered
to wait the two days for the cd's to show up.  (thanks Walnut Creek!!)  When
I get a spare machine to play with/on, that might change.

As it was, the ethernet card worked under Win3.1/Win95, but not FreeBSD (it
was the 'new' smc9332).  In the process of bringing my system up, I
reinstalled the os at least 10 times.  If I'd have tried to use the internet
install, it would have been miserable.  As it was, thanks to the
installation program, it really wasn't that bad.  I've still had some
problems, but that's for another message.

All I wanted to say was there are some of us who will wait for the CD, even
if we have the latest and greatest available via internet.
