G'Day Charles,

Yes, I have the ISO images.

If you have broadband, I can place them on one of my work servers for
speedy China download.  Or if you need you can swing past my office and
pick up some CD-R's.

Let me know what is best for you, I am easy either way.

Anyone else want a FC2 CD set?

I also have the CentOS cd's.  http://www.centos.org.  VERY COOL!  If you
need a stable and enterprise linux - that works with all enterprise
apps, oracle from Todd, DELL and HP web  server management programs for
hardware monitoring, etc.

Cya,
RF.
