They need to get the download sorted out --- all the links to mirrors didn't work, the torrent (argh !) worked and that was as slow as treacle, at the moment it is showing over 6 hours to complete the download, I have a fast web connection and normally I can download bigger Linux ISO in 15 minutes. Update now 22 minutes into the download ---- expect time to finish is now 9 hours !!! --- I give up.
This OS is supposed to be backed unofficially by Google --- what are they playing at no wonder only 25,000 copies have been download (13/Feb/08)
The web has lots of good free Linux/Solaris/BSD versions available on much quicker hosts --- If you want a good Debian/Ubuntu based distro for desktop use by a noobie download Mint Linux or Mepis. You will have either downloaded up and running and installed to hard disk within 30 minutes.
