Yes. I'm aware that if you're crazy you can download all of that. :)

Or, you can download the one install CD, install Debian / Ubuntu, and 
then apt-get anything else that you want. It means being able to 
download the install disk in 30 - 45 mins. (depending on your connection 
speed) as opposed to 3 - 5 hours. (Or in Roger's case 10 hours?)

I'm still amazed that Fedora is distributed as a DVD. I still remember 
back in the RedHat 6 days of really only one CD (of a total of 3 CDs?).
