    I really want this cd as the only internet access I have is by modem, and I'm not spending hours downloading the updates on each of the three computers that I need to update. So my question is does anyone have this cd and is willing to send me a copy?? This would be a huge big favour if somebody could do that for me :) If nobody does have I would also like to know how to lay my hands on it as it seems you can only order it from the us or canada.

    thanks for that direct link baz #2 ;), I've been trying to go through the three steps for ages but everytime I choose my os and click go it goes to the "Find out which os your pc is running" page, very frustrating, in fact I had just given up, and now I have found some salvation thanks to you :).

    I still would like the service pack cd too.

    p.s. Were you doing your degree this year, and if so how did you do?

    Thanks for all your help guys, but I finally got through that cd ordering system and the cd should be winging its way to me soon enough so I shouldnt need to bother homerzero, even though he offered to let me bother him (okay this is starting to sound perverted). Anyway its the winter 2004 version that theyre sending me (I guess that means either it was released in January, or that I'll be safe until christmas), so if anyone wants me to send them a copy drop me a pm as I'll be distributing it to family and friends as it is.

    Anyway thanks again to everyone :)

    P.S. Congrats to BazH, may your burger flipping delegation bring you great fortunes ;)
