That's good, but the real reason I want the CD is having the packages/ports collection handy. While were at it, any idea how long it takes to install via ftp with a 56k connection? Does it get the sourcces and compiles, or gets the binaries(which would kill me!)? Thanks. ----- Original Message ----- From: Benjamin M.
