Unless you have a very fast connection you could spend a day or 2 of none
stop downloading.  Instead I suggest that you go to:
    http://www.cheapbytes.com
and order the linux distribution of your choice for $1.99 + shipping  on
CD.  It only took 3 days for me to recieve my order to Canada and have
heard of many other good experiences when dealing with cheapbytes.  They
also offer book/CD combinations that will help you get started if you are
not familiar with Linux.
