- Bittorrent is slower than a standard download
-
If these distros are only available on bittorrent, chances are they are not legit. Bittorrent is mainly used to transfer copyrighted material. I took a look at the offerings. This is free for all for you but hell for the authors.
A 50 mb download took about 3-4 minutes for me. A standard download would take 1 1/2 minutes. I can download Fedora 3 in about 20 minutes for the iso.
You would burn your own linux comrades. What is the matter with you? Oh I know, you don't give a sh*t. - Posted by: osreinstall Posted on: 05/26/05 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
It should be a lot easier to search for Linux distro torrents now!
