Barry, can you please check, and confirm that if we get an ISO to you by 
Monday 20 August, (our likely delivery date), that you will still have 
time to burn the DVD. (This gives you 2 weeks to burn DVDs).

Re which ISO to burn: you should be using the regular image for DVDs.
The mini-ISO is used if you wish to burn 4 Meg USBs.
