Hi Guys,

Just bought a 320gb sata drive and wanting to install linux when i put it in, being i've still got 1 week or so before my isp account rolls over the 4gb download will send me to dial up speed (busy first half of the month )

Being that linux is open source so there's no copyright problems has anyone got a copy or can make a copy to help me out or point me in the direction of a site that sells it in australia??

thinking about installing this but I cant really download the file size. I think its over 3gb! If anyone has it let me know and I will possibly exchange a payment a burned DVD containing YDL v6 for ps3.

I have it on mine, I used it about 3 times.

I even went and bought a usb mouse and usb keyboard, for it even though I already had the bluetooth media board. I like it for the fact it can play all media files, I like they way you can update firefox, and flash plugins. But it runs mega slow. I have it on disc if anyone wants a copy. it's a shareware program.
