By that, I mean that I have been wondering about Linux users on modem connections. I've been noting the absolutely huge volume (in MB) of patches for Linux distros which always seem to assume a broadband connection. It is admittedly a bit off topic for a CentOS list, since CentOS is committed to fidelity to the updates provided upstream. But I would be interested in your thoughts on the matter. I figure CentOS, Debian Stable, or Suse are the best bet, these days. Suse, I believe, does binary deltas so you don't have to download the whole package to fix a one liner. -Steve Bergman
