Heh. You do mean 350kBYTES/s right? 'Cause when I say I get 230kB/s,
that also is 1840kbps ;) Probably me being pedantic but.. <g>

So, CD1 still doesn't boot for you in test3? Interesting, most have said
it's fixed. (I can't comment as I haven't burned my discs yet.)

BTW, care to share this great mirror? :p I have found netcraft to be
super fast, however they don't offer test release isos.. :(
