Hi, Amanda: Yeh, I know what you mean about knowing the lingo. Sorry. Didn't mean to assume in my earlier mail. The .iso image files are huge. About 680 mB each, approximately. They're fully loaded CD ROM images, in other words. Yes, you can always (almost) get a listing of files with ftp. Just use ls or dir. Both work. PS: Yes, the disk treadmill moves on as does the cpu speed treadmill. Are you ready for 300 gB disks in another year or so? -- Janina Sajka, Director Technology Research and Development Governmental Relations Group American Foundation for the Blind (AFB) Email: janina at afb.net Phone: (202) 408-8175 Chair, Accessibility SIG Open Electronic Book Forum (OEBF) http://www.openebook.org
