Tech Highlights CD
I know the tech highlights cd has been out for a while now, but I had a hard time trying to find it, so I decided I would host it for a while.

its the only torrent on there.
its capped at 150KB/s (1200Kbps)
I'll leave it up until demand goes away for the file.
EDIT: The download was fine for me too, I think I was getting about 400-500KB/s from your site, that machine was on a dedicated 5 mbit up and down.

I downloaded it last night. But the (zip/iso) file I got doesn't seem to work for me.
Anyone know what type of filesystem it's supposed to be? (I've tried to mount it in both Linux and MacOS without any success.....)

I did that and none of my machine would rear it Windows XP SP2, MacOS X or Linux.
They all claim the CD does not contain a filesystem that is readable.
(I'm redownloading to try again.. but I don't suspect it will help...)

Yup.. I did that twice.. (both with the original download and the subsequent one.)
Either the file is corrupt (which I actually doubt), or the image is in a format these programs are not understanding.
(FYI I am using MacOS X's Disk Utility to burn the raw image.)

Yeah, I can't get it to work with OSX either. Should be able to mount it as a CD image, but I'm also getting a warning that there's no readable file system. Can't burn it if I can't mount it.
What kind of files are actually supposed to be on the CD?

rx8wannahave: I don't think this is the same as that owners DVD, this is more like a tutorial for technicians on some aspects of the car: engine, body, electronics, etc.
There is even a quiz and exam on the CD.
I think someone sent that customer DVD to Taka in Australia, don't know if he has it ripped and posted to his site yet, hope so :D
Anyway I will have this one up for you even if SAFD1450 has to take it down :D
I just used daemon tools to mount the image and had no issues with it. Not sure about Macs though, I use real computers (just kidding :p )

i used toast (5.21) to burn it to cd. worked great...in my windows machine.
you won't be able to use it as it was designed on anything but a windows machine, because it has an .exe frontend (designed in director?) that autoloads when you through the cd in.
but you can still get all the valueble info off of it, because all the videos are on the root directory of the cd as .mov files.
i'm sure there is some free program out there to use instead of toast, but i haven't bothered to look since i have toast.
and to answer a different question, no, it won't work in a standalone dvd player...at least i didn't notice the file structure that would allow that kind of operation when i was playing around with it...gotta use it on the computer.
see if this helps...

if that link doesn't work, go to versiontracker.com, make sure you are in the mac os x section, and search 'image mount'.

Well Guys I am still only at 1% of my bandwidth qouta so the file will be staying until its not needed anymore. Sorry about the issues with the macs, but as mentioned before I believe this cd was made for Windows only.
