Ok I think I found it, (ls /home/jose/iso)

jose@jose-Aspire-one:~$ ls /home/jose/iso
android-x86-4.0-RC2-eeepc.iso     raring-alternate-i386.iso
boot                              raring-alternate-powerpc.iso
lubuntu-12.10-alternate-i386.iso  raring-desktop-i386.iso
lubuntu-12.10-desktop-i386.iso    rexbang-B2-4.iso
macpup_529.iso                    ubuntu-10.04-alternate-powerpc.iso
mini.iso                          ubuntu-10.04-desktop-powerpc.iso
plpbt-5.0.14                      xubuntu-12.04.1-alternate-i386.iso
product key                       xubuntu-12.04.1-desktop-i386.iso

So in conclusion, when I down load through Zsync it should see my
raring-desktop-1386.iso and updated?. Of course taken that I pick the same
one to download next time.
Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Thank you for your patience
jose
