That was the trouble I had, the download took ages. I managed to
download all 5 .iso files and cat them together into one big file to
burn onto DVD. However even though that DVD would boot, the installer
told me it couldn't find the files for the second disk so I ended up
burning five separate CDs.

months to get dust out of everything, it's a great machine, and really
quiet.

The variable fan control makes all the difference, I guess it's all part
of the Energy Star compliance. I find it's quiet enough to leave on over
night once the disks have gone to sleep. 

Best regards
