No idea what DL means......

There probably worth less now but there are multiple gmail invites to
the person that can get me burning cd's (even as root, i dont care) or
if you in the UK, Sussex area and manage to get me burning you can
have an old hp netserver lh II, dual pentium 233, 128mb ram, 3 x 4Gb
scsi & 2 x 9Gb scsi, cd-rom, hp surestore dat8 & a few dds2 8Gb tapes.
