Woohoo. Now if only it didn't take several hours to download all of the
half-dozen images you need to get for every platform, at a whopping
250KB/s, one at a time, using lynx. The slow speeds of ftp.juniper.net
wouldn't be so bad if you didn't have to use a full web browser to login
and fetch each image, i.e. if you could just fire off a wget and use
http or ftp authentication to download them in the background in
parallel. Alas the software download features of all router vendors seem
to be limited to the lowest common denominator, some guy clicking "Save
As" in their IE6 browser on their Windows desktop. Would a sftp server
you could actually do bulk gets from really be that hard?
