From the looks of it, everyone on HN is currently downloading Plan 9 from User Space. It's a 51MB download and the download speed is currently 3-4kB/sec!

The swtch.com machine has a fairly slow connection. Better ways to get it: - hg clone https://code.google.com/p/plan9port plan9 - http://am.lcs.mit.edu/~rsc/plan9port.tgz I changed the link on the home page to point to that tgz instead.
