Angus: I don't use Debian so sorry ther my friend but I can't answer your questions specific to speech-enabling the geniric cds you are contemplating buying from Cheap Bytes, however; if you are looking for a set of non-speakup modified Debian disks and you are on cable as I seem to remember you being you might like to know that I got pretty decent download speeds downloading Debian R 6 from: ftp.rutgers.edu. So, of course this would nullify the need to buy the cds if you wish to save a dollar or two. Hth.
