60 gig torrent. It was the all 9 seasons of the X-Files.

That was a fun one.

non-torrent? probably the fedora 3 DVD iso at 3.something gigs

Around 241GB, the combined original Doctor Who series. I don't count the new 2005 series in that number because seasons 2 and 3 were DLed episode by episode. Season 1 was a separate torrent as well.

the ratio of male to female is still terrible though...2:1. food, yes...7 cafes, you can't beat that! i lived in ellingson tower my first year (i assure it was built in early 90's), then building 28 my second and third year, riverknoll my 4th year before moving to briar manor apartment then to a house in scottsville. now i'm living in a 5 bedroom house in downtown.

RIT sold some of their property to wilmorette (sp?) to build college town. once college town is completed, RIT will be tearing down riverknoll apartments and build more greek mansions in effort to push all greek organizations out of dorms because right now, RIT enrolled over 2,500 freshmen which is a record and they don't have enough housing for them.
