I had a opposite reaction to lsl. Back when ham was stable and slink was just about ready, I ordered the full ham set (2 CD's I think) and 4 slink CD's (for Alpha and i386). What they sent was: 4 corrupt CDR's of slink and instead of ham CD's I got 2 more blank slink CDR's... I emailed them and about 2 months later they sent me 8 working slink CD's - 4 i386 binary CD's, 2 contrib CDR's, and 2 source CD's. I never got the Alpha or ham CD's. I started using cheapbytes after that and haven't had any problems (yet). As someone else pointed out: it is best to wait until you can get real CD's instead of CDR's.
