@ and re michaelleung: Yeah, no issue on the sarcasm insults, I was not being serious with the seasonal changes comment much anyway. grats on getting past 100 too while you are at it.
@ Aliasalpha: I plan on using the downloader, and grabbing it bit by bit, I have a higher (hah!) limit now, so a bad download is not an issue, just sharing the thing. Planting porn on another persons computer... either that will cause even more trouble, or they'll quickly move it to their hidden directory collection and I'll be their friend for a week!.
Holidays next week, I'll be the only one in the building at work and could grab the whole thing in about just under 90 minutes. Logged by the head office though, I don't think I can convince them it was for educational purposes :)

I'll figure something out.

An expensive 25GB now! up from 12GB. I believe I've worked something out, since we don't quite reach the limit, I'll grab what I can then let it run at dialup for an entire day on the last 'monthly' day according to Telstra and grab the rest.
Sesame Street says a lot of things, they don't apply when I need my GOG and gaming fix!

You're.... on TELSTRA?? My god that explains everything. Do no other ISPs service your area?

Sadly... no. There are a few small ISPs of varying low-mid quality & a dial-up service. Internode claims they will do this area, but further checking and they tell me 'not available at the moment', I'm on a notification list. There is a lot of new housing blocks coming up in the next two years, a bit of a wait, but will give reason for competition.
We only were able to get broadband in 2005-6 as well. But if my house was on the other side of the highway, options abound!

I guess I should be happy with my 15mbit with no limit and costing 25 dollars a month, huh? : ) Hooray for Czech Republic, heh.I already downloaded all 8 games yesterday and today I am going to install them and test them.
