I've just got both disks 9.1 using BitTorrent. Pretty fast I'd say (about
250KB/sec down and 50KB/sec up). And makes you feel warm and fuzzy because
of helping others.
However, I can't install 9.1 on my laptop somehow. I get a bad EIP value
with a hex dump shortly after booting the CD. Yes, the md5 sums match...
I'll think more about it in the morning.
Best,
