Re: Console replacement strategy

And for PTF's just download straight into the catalogue and forget about 
the CD's.

It would be nice if one could get the OS upgrades and LPP's via 
download.  I'm guessing that they are not because, as large as some are, 
it would bring the ftp server to its knees.

I worked for a software vendor that eventually out all package upgrades 
on our web site.  When one was available, part of my job was to notify 
all of our customers (most via email) that it was available.  We could 
feel the air go out of the web site's pipes within ten minutes!
