you can buy the two dvd of debian sarge (about 10 euros or 15 US dollars 
only)
Then you have all the packages on cd

You'd better do that soon, because the Longhorn in 2006 will not be 
compatible with the XP and old windows apies, and the palladium is going 
to make people who only like windows because it is easy to use hate it 
even more.  It will be the end of windows operating system, or it will 
stay as an operating system for some nostalgic people, somehow a gold 
edition.  You know the artist they do a gold edition of thair books when 
they die, witch looks nicer, but witch has no future, (or maybe only a 
future because of wine lol)

I still remember the sinclair emultaros for PC, witch alow you to play 
old basic games for sinclair on PC's....

About the flash.. it hink it works somehow with wine or with crossover....
