Neverwinter Nights downloads, help obtaining?


I thought that NWN just installed from the install discs...apparently not because the site says download these huge files and use the windows discs as coasters(gladly).I do not have a broadband connection sadly and my school is sick of my downloading distro and kernels as it is so I have no way of playing neverwinter nights because I don't boot to windows. Can someone please send me the files for a linux installation? I'm willing to pay whoever through paypal for them, as long as the price isn't outragous
Before you bother to go to the site with the files, the first is 1 and something gigs so only a DVD burner will be able to burn the disc.
http://nwn.bioware.com/downloads/linuxclient.html
The site with the install file and the language file
I live in the US
onemessedupjedi@hotmail.com
(I'll get a non-microsoft e-mail eventually )
Thanks for any help. I have a friend I can get them from it'll just take a long while if I ask him.



PS. This forum as a whole really doesn't seem geered towards something like this or discussion (it is a help site after all) Please post any links to more informal forums please.

This is a link to the NWN Linux installer:

http://icculus.org/~ravage/nwn/

Download the file nwn_129_final.run. Make sure you have the CD in the drive. This will install the game (may take a while). Remeber, you will need to update the game, so don't forget to go to nwn.bioware.com to get the latest patch.

If you ever need a port of somthing, this is always a good site to check out icculus.org

By the way, I would suggest installing to a single user directory. If you install to /usr you need to make the owner the user who will be using the game... At least that's what I'VE found.
