The bling thing was a typo. Fix'd now. Colplay because *www.coldplay.com/lrlrl/lr.html. Check out Zero Gravity Toilet - it's a little strange, but refreshing.

I was also waiting for Digit archive, now no going through each and every dvd, for a specific game or DVD.
Hope this time the search criteria would be much better then the previous one.

Is it still in its beta form?

Who need good old movies?

I do. Most of them are Black & White but that does not mean they are not good. Watch them with patient & you will really discover some diamonds of films from them.

digit seems to be more interested in giving the alphas and betas of distros and miss the major versions.

I thought they would atleast give fedora 11 DVD but.......

The 2 DVD space every month is not properly utilized at all. All crap software except last month's web development kit.

EVen they never bundled windows live essentials which is a must have.

Learn from chip they attract the users even with their single DVD offering.

Again a repeat issue of fast track....... and they ask us to suggest new topics........... where is visual studio 2010 beta version........ and they have provided digit archive is it full or beta......
 

LegendKiller

its surprising as well as shocking that to learn that fast-track topics are being repeated.....
Also that team-digit has been avoiding compalints here at forums,which begs the questions "What is the purpose of this post??????"

My comments in june issue feedback were also not answered............
