I am a bit miffed that in order to download the updates to FM 8 I have
to download a 200MB file - I live in New Zealand, and here broadband is
nowhere near as common as other countries - hell, I don't even *know*
anyone here who has broadband at home, so because my FM work is a
hobby, I do it at home, hence dial up..
It would probably take me over 24 hours to download a file that size
<snip>
Anyway, that's my rant for the day..
We could rephrase this: Is there anyone in New Zealand who could burn
the v2 and v3 update on a CD and mail it to this guy?
