I started the download yesterday. There are two binary files in my
request. It JUST finished the first one. Our internet connection is NOT
just two Dixie cups and a string however at this rate I can probably get
it shipped to me on media faster. Yes I am using the FTP method directly
to my i.
I am getting, on average, 87MB every 30 minutes of this ptf data from IBM.
So if I have two files:
3804MB and 2626MB totalling 6430MB it should take about 37 hours to
download.

IBM's download site is pathetically slow.
