Bingo!
It's as big as a CD so DLing over a dialup is definitely out. Check out 
the 3.0.1 Geek Pack though. It comes in the  mail and it's just the 
CDs. Pretty cheap, if memory serves.

The 'iso' comes from the fact that the files have names like 
Install1.iso. The TLA comes from the fact that they do conform to an 
ISO standard for disk images.
