That is a good point, that was the size after compiling, but needless to
say, my directory after compiling is:
$ du -sc linux-2.2.14/
111M linux-2.2.14
111M total
I left a lot of stuff as modules that I don't need at the moment, because I
tend to trade alot of hardware out this this particular system, and I don't
want to have to recompile every time. I would guess that would probably
have alot to do with it.

I posted an email about a charge that may be implimented for email and
asked if anyone could vouch for it validity. I think I found the answer
to my own question.
