Thanx to all who replied.
I downloaded using torrent and that was indeed fast.
However .... after I made sure it had the correct sha256sum, and after I burned it to DVD, and and dd'd the DVD back to a temp file and again checked the sha256sum of the temp file, all was OK. Same sha256sum.
So, I rebooted the machine and it booted up from the DVD. I got a message that it was not using VNC, Then after that immediately an error came out saying something about xbi...something not working. Machine did not proceed any further. I rebooted agian and agian, same error.
The machine is a Dell Latitude E6500, Dual Core 2.8GHz, 8GB RAM, 1TB HD.
Any info on this?
On my phone, I have an image of the screen when the error is belched out. I have to yet be able to extract it out of the phone. Since I have no OS to run on my machine, I am using the live Knoppix, which has no sense to mount the storage of the android phone; so the I am unable to attach it, nor a way to upload it to a free upload site.

Greetings...
What is the fastest site for downloading CentOS-7-x86_64-DVD-1503-01.iso ?
I almost always download the -minimal- version, and then install the specific packages I need with yum.
