TranceAddict Forums Archive > Main Forums > Chill Out Room What do you think about this open-source software "store"? View this Thread in Original format ali92 http://freesoftwarecdr.com/ - This MAY be the best alterative to DL'ing Linux and xBSD as well as other open-source software over a slow connection. They have EXCELLENT prices (Linux and xBSD starts at $5 USD) and they can ship out your order on the same day if you order before 16:00 US Eastern Time (20:00 UTC/GMT). I like to know what you TAs think about it. Remember: You're getting the SAME thing as if you downloaded it from www.linuxiso.com so, it's only good for slow-speed connections. This is how I might get my Linux distribution since I'm on an analogue modem <56K connection. So, the question is: Would you prefer buying a full package or the CD from here? It's your choice... Munken Buy the 5$ version. You don't need a nice box and a nice manual, you can get the manual here: Mandrake: http://www.mandrakelinux.com/en/fdoc.php3 Red Hat: http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/ btw. you can download them and back them up if something goes wrong and you can't connect to the internet. ali92 quote: Originally posted by Munken Buy the 5$ version.

Thanks! You're a big help! I'm getting Linux Mandrake 8.2 so, I'll just get those manuals. Then again, it wouldn't hurt to have RH too! Thanks again! CLICK TO RETURN TO TOP OF PAGE
