The Redhat network has been extremely busy since Monday night (BNE time) due 
to the pre-release of Red Hat Linux 9 ISO's to those with rhn subscriptions.  

It took me until this morning to get the three binary ISO's.  :-(  I have been 
using a 512k frame relay to the 'net and a few times the download dropped to 
modem like speeds.

P.S.  If anyone is interested in getting a copy over the weekend, email me 
within the next hour or so with contact info.  I'm going out tonight so I'll 
be leaving office a little early today.
