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.

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. - Erik On Wed, 18 Feb 2009, Shango Los wrote: > Hi Susan, > > The video Erik made is distributed as a Torrent file.
