Yea but that isn't the 64-bit.. I can download fast and w/o issues.. I can't
get the _64bit_ DVD ISO. I can get the 64bit cdrom images 1 -7... but not
the DVD ISO __via the torrent__.

I get smoking downloads of unrelated torrents. Smoking downloads from
various vendor sites. (ie: Oracle 11g in ~90 minutes)
