Well, OK, *IF* you are not willing to use the net to install some of
your packages, then yes, you'll need the CDs.
However, I confess I don't understand your view. Here's why: you
apparently would be willing to download and burn all the CDs if there
weren't so many (otherwise, why be unhappy with the number?); and you
did just that with the 7 CDs making up Woody. You're unhappy because
it'll take a long time to use the net to download all the ISOs for
Sarge. But you *don't* want to use the net to download only the
packages you want -- an approach that would take *much much much*
less time (since you're not fetching things you're not interested
in). You're upset about the time it would take to download all the
ISOs; but you're not interested in an approach which would cause
getting the packages you want to take a lot less time. I guess I
don't understand that.
