I want to get maya ple but its a 133 mb download and the computer I want to put it on doesnt have internet.

I have a removable HD but it only holds 64 mb. Can I cut it in half? Or pick it up on CD somewhere locally?

Get an iPod, you will never have trouble. :p

Is it possible to do that? Do you have a CD-RW in your upstairs that you could burn it onto?

Without some software (which I am unaware of) I would have to say no because a download comes in bits and is assembled upon arrival.

Use winzip to cut the size..

First compress the files, after which go to "Actions > Split..." from the winzip interface.

On the next screen, change the "Part size" at the bottom of the window, and set the desired size you wanna split it up into. And set the filename, etc.

Click OK and you're done.

The Trial version works as well, so this is a free solution for ya

Sorry, I thought he meant to download it in bits - lol.... but you can also use WinRar, which will take anything of a large size and chop it as well.

I have winzip, so I'll use that I guess. How ugly is the watermark that maya ple leaves on stuff? :D

I've never used one and don't know if it will work, but you could try using a file splitter program.

Yup.. The only thing about winrar is that its not that friendly compared to winzip, but yeah, it'll work too.
