Huh? I am not going to download 750MB over a dialup line, it would take between 3 and 5 days, and frankly I don't have the resources available to accomodate that, nor do I have the time. Makes me wonder what the heck they put in the thing, the Linux server is 524MB, the windows client is 208MB surely this must be compressed somehow, so they must be well past the 1GB mark when uncompressed. I would assume this contains some docs and utilities.

By the same token, I have on a pair of Zip disks (100MB variety) Sybase, MySQL, Interbase, Firebird, PostgreSQL and Faircom's stuff with both the server and client for each, in less space then the Oracle client. Hopefully it doesn't all need to be installed, because I don't have that much spare disk space.

How does that help?
