Match distro and desktop?

[Alan Dayley]

I have the CDs burned and installed with them on my test system at work.  
Smooth.

I did not download the SRPMS.  Do you want them?

I'll see about making copies of the distro CDs for you.  I don't own a burner 
and have to borrow one when I want to toast one.  Shouldn't be a problem 
though.  I can probably do it tomorrow.
