Just posting this in hopes one of you fine people who might be among the first to have it might be kind enough to upload the iso to a newsgroup in addition to or instead of just torrenting it. Hopefully it's not just personal preference on my part but a download straight off a news server is about a 100 times faster and more reliable than a torrent and you never have to worry about seeders or getting stuck at 99% etc. I think it's safe to assume pretty much everyone with a broadband subscription has access to a news server so it's always kind of baffled me why torrents are the preffered distribution method for this stuff, but I digress.
Oh and also I wanted to thank Zeph and everyone else for their hard work - I can't wait to install it!
