You can still install via floppies...

I installed OS/2 first, pulled the distro from a BBS, then installed Slackware from boot floppies and the FAT partition where I downloaded the distro. If I remember correctly, this required significantly fewer floppies. And the 9600 baud modem could spend all night pulling down the distro for the next morning.

What a nightmare

If this is how you expect the Internet to built out in Oz, you will never have a useful, effective, dynamic Internet. "Won't the Big US Monopolies please come and build an Internet for us because we can't build our own!" Stop chasing joeys around the Outback and put some effort into creating your own large scale data companies. Slacker

Present to the President??!! I don't think so. The property taxes are paid to the state and local tax boards and school districts. The President can never change education for the better at the K-12 level; only lower the lowest common denominator to drag all students down to an even lower level.

Real change in education happens best at the local level.
