Hello Jim,
Your not alone in the "can't get there" department. I just tried it
and it seems most of the links are down and you end up getting 404
errors. Too bad too, because I was really thinking about
subscribing. I do believe in supporting software developers
whenever possible, but I am not going to jump through hoops to do
it. Looks like I will be waiting the 2-3 weeks for the public
servers to get it and be freed up enough so I can download them
then.
RedHat lost out on my business because the service they offered was
too slow and over sold. Sorry guys, I am a private home user who
doesn't have money to just throw away, I need to see something when
I pay for it.
