Re: [GSAS-Member] Ghazanfar's Cryptocoryne talk archive - now available



If anyone still wants to grab these files, I have my server online and
hosting today as well.  So your download times should be helped by that.

I'll just add that depending on the speed of your connection, it can
take 
a looong time for it to download.

Offer is still good to sneakernet the data at a meeting.  But you'll
need 
a flash drive to copy it onto.

Finally, you will need to have a player installed to play the .mp4 file.

If 
you have Quicktime, that should be fine.  There's also a great free 
universal player at http://www.videolan.org/vlc that has mp4 support.
