I guess the cold here (and working on my car out in it) is freezing my
brain. For some reason although I have my YAST software installation
sources set up with mirrors, I somehow reasoned I had to get 10.0 from
opensuse.com. After choosing a mirror, my downloading time went from 25
hours to 18 minutes per CD iso. Wow, what a difference.
Now I have to decide whether I want to spend the day upgrading to Suse 10.0,
completing a webpage for my brother-in-law, or freezing my dorsal end off
trying to remove the ignition switch from my Cavalier.
