This site is fantastic, without filezilla or any other download manager, it allows IE/firefox to directly download file >4GB.

A more efficient way of doing this would be:
Go to Download Linux
Select a distro, say SuSE
Select the version, say 10
Read the line "To suggest another mirror click here" and click the link
Complete the box and submit

http://iso.linuxquestions.org/distro.php?distro=5 Our Knoppix liting has a DVD, if any of the distros appear not to have a DVD edition go here and use the General Feedback box.
