Cheap friend...

Okay, I've had three unfortunate happenings with Red Hat Linux 8.0 because I'm really stupid with non-Windows OS's so I want to sell my discs (6). I've had to reformat my computer three times because of stupid things I've done to corrupt Linux. My friend wanted to borrow my discs to load them onto his computer but since I wanted to get rid of them and I paid $15 for them, I wanted to make some profit rather than just giving them away. I told him I wanted $5 and he said no because he wanted to make sure they worked. I guaranteed him that they worked and a refund if they didn't but he said he'd rather download them. Now that is simply ridiculous. When I tried downloading it, it took me a long time and nine times out of ten it was corrupt or some other error. But what do you think of this? I think he is one cheap bastard.

sheesh. for $5 you should have given it ot him. i dont blame him for wanting to save $5 and download it.

I think you are the cheap one. not to mention greedy. here you came complaining because he wont pay you $5 for it. sheesh.
 
No, really. Linuxiso.org offers quality legal linux downloads. And if you have cable, it really doesn't take long at all. What's $5 anyway?
 
then just loan him the discs and get them back. Hell, I gave away all my linux cds with the exception of a mini-woody(debian, I'm weird) disc I keep just in case I go back to the dark side and away from the light that is BSD.
