fuck, are you serious??!!! I got 180 Kb/s bandwith on the server i dled from.... and that was right when after i posted "i will get it after i hear your reviews"
In fact it took 4 hours for all the images, but then i accidentally deleted one and dled it again in less than 3 hours (started before i went to school, finished before lunch)
The only problem is that i dont hav and CD/R

Well, I started downloading directly from RedHat before the mirrors actually had it available (big mistake on release day). I should have killed the downloads earlier but I wasn't in a huge hurry. I was able to keep what was already downloaded and resume the transfers from a mirror using ncftpget.

Geeeeeeeeeeesh!!!!!! You can barely get on! And if you do it wants to take up to 60 hours!
And linux is dead?
Yeah, release day is a bad time to try and download. :(

it looks like redhat8.0 is a going to be a kick ass solution for a desktop os. i am downloading it now, in fact, i have about 10 minutes left and then its time to burn cds. I watched the flash video, checked the site, and i can say that i am very excited to install it. i am currently learning how to setup and administer a basic linux server using redhat7.0 (it shipped with the book) and already enjoy using linux. I was using suse, but i havent booted into it for a while. i think im going to wipe that drive and put redhat8.0 on it instead. 8.0 looks, easy (if thats the right word). something that a lot of people could easily switch to.

Correct me if am wrong, but doesnt Gnome have an Xpish look to it? I am talking about system settings and they way its layed out.
This kinda pisses me off.
