Well, in my haste i stated the wrong version numbers. It is 4.0.2 version
that is 711 mb. The 3.9 version was 713mb, and the 3.8.2 version was 710 Mb
so the size of the file doesnt matter much as far as i am concerned. I just
thought the earlier versions might be a tad more stable or had some
interesting software included that was not on the 4.0.2 version. I'm pretty
sure it will burn to a cd even tho it is slightly larger than a 700mb cd. I
downloaded from the U of Fla and other sites i checked have the same size
files.
