Question How the hell do I get hold of 10?


I have been searching all day and I can't get 10 anywhere! I have tried all the mirrors on the mandrakelinux website and my browsers just freezes up on me!

I started with Bittorrent but the idea makes me a bit iffy! Surely thgats like inviting people onto your PC? Or am I wrong is it just like P2P?

Does anyone know of any mirrors that may be useful?

that's like traveling overseas on a makeshift raft.

You can always order it on CD and have it mailed to you.

Getting someone to ship you the 3 CDs shouldn't be too hard... $10? $4 for priority mail, $2 for the CDs, $2 for bubble envelope, $2 for gas. $209 cheaper than Windoze...
