Hi,
I'd like to buy a set of CentOS CDs: 4CDs + 1 DVD. I'm on dialup, so this is the best solution for me. Plus, usually CDs from the store are better quality and tend to last longer in my humble experience.
Normally I buy my CDs at ikarios.fr, but strangely, they only sell Centos 3.7 CDs. I mailed them about 2 weeks ago, but got no answer.
Anyone knows where's the best place to get these when I'm in France?
Cheers,
Niki Kovacs

Unsure if there is better out there, but could always try : http://www.linuxcd.org/view_distro.php?id_distro=224&ref=distrowatch
Alternatively, you could try a local LUG (Linux User Group), often people on user groups will burn/send cds at cost.

I usually use e-bay, there are a number of sources here in the UK and postal charges if any, are the same to any part of the EU.

Just for the record ... and to answer this question for the list and futiure searches:
CentOS has an Official CD/DVD vendor program. These Vendors donate part of their monies for each sale back to the CentOS project, and they provide quality ISOs:
I would recommend one of those vendors ... Lance already did recommend one (cheeplinux) for the particular location in this question, but for anyone else anywhere else ... use authorized vendors to get quality CD / DVDs and to support the CentOS Project.
(BTW ... our CD/DVD vendor program is accessible from the main CentOS.org website, using "Downloads -> Where to Buy CDs or DVDs" ...) -------------------------- If you are a CD / DVD vendor and want to join the program, please see this guide:

www.cheeplinux.com will ship them to France at no extra cost.
