Hello Pascal - 

WC>> Just under 733 Meg on the CD you sent. 

PS> Sure? 700 megs (using the CD definition of a meg) are
PS> 734003200 bytes. 

W2K reports: 733,337,600 at 699 meg for the bootable CD but
reports 733,708,288 also at 699 meg for the image as a data
file on another CD. 

DOS reports 733,337,600 for the data CD? 

Seems Microsoft does some 'approximations' when displaying
sizes. :-) 

Also interesting that KNOPPIX appears to be booting from good
ole 'useless' DOS. LOL
