80MB?  Umm... I got a 486DX4/100 and I've got 800MB and a 500MB.
Though I suppose.  If they can fit a fairly nice distro on a floppy why
not 80MB....

http://www.tucows.com/
Or, more specifically.
http://linux.tucows.com/

I like Tucows a lot better than download.com.  They have you choose a
local server when you download something (I think of that as a feature
after I try getting crap from freaking fileplanet).
