The key word here is "price per minute", > not "speed". Your memory doesn't serve you well. Please, get yourself access to a 64Kbps link, make Fedora update itself and try to do anything else in the process. Let me propose remote SSH session. Especially when you use it for work when something's broken and you need to fix it, quick. I give you 30 seconds before you either smash your keyboard with a hammer or killall -9 yum. Because, you know, people use Fedora to do other things than updating it. I, for one, turn my computer on only when I need it. It can't download updates when I'm asleep or at work, because it's turned off at the time. Oh, I use cpuspeed on the desktop, because it saves me over 2 Watts of energy :) Don't think you can make me leave the thing on for 9 hours a day (when I'm at work, which, coincidentally, is the time needed to update OOo on my previous link; now I have a fast connection, able to update OOo in 4 hours, whoah!) Price per minute (dialup) and price per byte (GPRS) are two another factors, but don't tell me I can update my system and do anything else, even on a 256 Kbps link. Lam
