The simplest thing is to do connect using the ftp command line tool

assume that graphical FTP clients can do a mget equivalent as well,
but I haven't tried one in a long time so I wouldn't know. Transmit
from Panic(.com) is very cute though. I once tried to download the
files with Finder, but that was a very, very, painful experience that
in the end didn't work...
Yes, Transmit works wonderfully for getting all the segments. I do it
all the time.
The segments are a vast improvement over a single image for one reason:
when the servers are overloaded (like the first 24 hours after a new
panther seed ;), then if you lose the connection, you don't have to
redownload the entire image again (because resume does not seem to
work).
They used to post both a single image and segments which was best: if I
knew traffic was probably low I could just grab the single image.
