Is the Jan. Inside Pool d/l edition really 79 megs?

Hmmm...seemed way to strange so I went and checked it out. The filesize is clearly listed as 7.72MB, but when I went to download it, it was giving me 81.5MB to download. Seems like there is some sort of problem. Might download is tomorrow at the pool hall, since I have DSL access there and see what goes, but there is no way an issue is going to hit close to 70+MB.

Extracted the file is 83.2MB. I've no idea why it's so huge for a pdf-file. Must wreak havoc on their bandwith.

Didn't notice any improvement in graphical quality.
 
There is a thread on the IP message board about this. I forget what it said as I don't DL the mag. But you may want to read it, I dunno. It is under the forum where you ask IP staff questions. Just an FYI.
 
The problem was that some hi-res images were left in and that resulted in a huge pdf. They'll have a new version with the right images ready next week.
