jnr_subz33 Posted April 29, 2004 Share Posted April 29, 2004 Hi there guys, well i was wondering if anyone from Australia perferably from NSW, who has any of the lastest distros of Linux if they could mail me some copies (Cds).. I know what you all thinking..why dont i get it myself..well i have a 56k connection..i guess thats no real excuse but it doesn't seem practical downloadin it... i've tried to ask friends and friends of friends but none of them seem to be linux users....most of them don't even know what it is.. so pretty much im asking if i could get a good samaritan to send me copies of linux distros..latest ones to install and try out...mailing doesn't cost much or we could even meet up... i'll be willing to make considerations etc... thanks guys...

markwolfe Veteran Posted April 29, 2004 Veteran Share Posted April 29, 2004 Do any of your friends have broadband, and can download and burn for you? If not, look up some LUG (Linux User Groups) in your part of the country. Try this list for starters. Let me tell you that Linux works best with a broadband connection. It is much more convenient to download patches and updates that way. :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnr_subz33 Posted April 29, 2004 Author Share Posted April 29, 2004 Thanks for your suggestions... Unfortunately here in australia, broadband is still somewhat of a luxury but hopefully thats going to change soon as new infustructure is laid about....therefore none of my friends have broadband... i just want to test out linux and see what i can learn from it..i've always been interested in it....just want to finally be able to test it out and might even stick with it...
