Guess you and I should start using CDRWs.

Just remember that DSL has a very fast paced development so its almost expacted that version upgrades would come out frequently. With this version I'm hoping my mouse will work, 1.2 didnt even let my cursor move, just so you know its a Trackman.

It is easy to do upgrades with a frugal install, you may want to do some research on that if you like staying with the most up to date version.
