Oops, that's an Australian mirror.  Just ftp://ftp.freebsd.org/ should 
be fine, or use a mirror site more local to you if you prefer; see:

cheers, Ian

PS Polytropon, I have a Lenovo X200 2.4GHz Core2 Due with only 2GB RAM 
that (occasionally) runs Xorg & KDE4 with no memory stress to speak of, 
but of course a lightweight desktop environment would be .. lighter :)

cheers, Ian
