I'm going to download the i386 and amd64 DVDs (6 total). This is going to take a while...
Ubuntu Cappuccino Scuro
Opera's being mean with me lately. Many downloads are simply freezing and random numbers are appearing as ETA.
Gee! These Aren't Roasted!
Lol, here's 'the real' Lenny...
As far as the CDs go, you'll only need one if you're doing a netinstall. If you want a complete desktop you'll be wanting at least the next CD too; as stated in the Errata for release 4.0r0
2nd CD torrent is going at a good clip right now too.Incomplete installation of Desktop task from full CD
The full CD image is too small to contain all packages needed to install the complete Desktop task. This means that if you only use the CD as a source, only part of the Desktop task will be installed.
You can resolve this either during the installation by choosing to use a network mirror as a source to install packages in addition to the CD (not recommended if you don't have a decent internet connection), or after you have rebooted into the installed system by using apt-cdrom to load additional CDs and then selecting the Desktop task again in aptitude.
Way Too Much Ubuntu
Huzzah for Etch!

But at least now I can get new features
Some people have told me they don't think a fat penguin really embodies the grace of Linux, which just tells me they have never seen an angry penguin charging at them in excess of 100mph. They'd be a lot more careful about what they say if they had.
Frothy Coffee!
Good job, Debian team, and congrats

Too much Ubuntu
How easy is Debian to install? I was reading the instructions and it sounds really complicated.

Being difficult to install is a myth these days. The last couple of versions have been relatively easy.
For instance Ubuntu's alternate CD text installer uses the Debian text installer IIRC.
