Big snip and a merry Christmas to you all. I've been watching this thread and the one thing that has been missed and it doesn't matter what the Intelligence of the user is like. But if some one gives you a CD saying this is a complete distro, surely no matter how thicK you are you must realise that a complete distro can not fit on a 700Mb CD, therefore there is more to be loaded, and when it sets up the inet connection it should be obvious that is where the additional is coming from. Had the the person have been given a DVD and told this is a complete distro, then maybe there might be an excuse for winging about additional downloads Maybe a case for having a DVD release so that those without broadband can install the complete ish distro, but there will always be a need to get updates -- Best wishes for the New year Richard Bown ##################################################################### Registered Linux User 36561 OS: Ubuntu 8.10, Intrepid, on AMD Dual Athlon 64 +4400: 8 GB RAM DDR2 Ham Call: G8JVM , QRA IO82SP, Interests Microwave ##################################################################### -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
