The distro is already over 50mb's so I guess we really can't add much. I just looked and ftp://ibiblio.org/pub....8.2.iso is 51mb (51425280).

*ponders if this thread is more meaningful then meaningful then orginal assumed*

You don't need to wait on a repackaged Siag spreadsheet extension in order to try it out.

You can try out the whole Siag Office (Including spreadsheet) by dowloading and installing this link here:

Actually....

Kilobytes are measured as 1024 bytes per KB
Megabytes are calculated as 1024 ^2 = 1,048,576 bytes per MB

so..........

51,425,280 bytes total  /  1,048,576 bytes per MB  =  49.042969 MB's

Which is what emelfm shows the dsl-0.8.2.iso file to be > 49.04

We're still good...

A true 50MB Biz card CD should hold 52,428,800 bytes = 50.0MB
