CD-based Linux (was: Re: [NBLUG/talk] OpenOffice 1.1 ISO has arrived...)

[Christopher Wagner]

I recently purchased a 52x burner that really screams..  I am willing to
burn whole stacks of CDs for the purpose of propogating Linux and open
source, provided someone supplies CD-Rs.

Are there businesses that are willing to donate blank CD-Rs to this purpose?

LUGOD handed out literally 300 copies of Knoppix over the span of three days
at the Government Technology Conference in Sacramento this past May.

(This must've been before I got my new camera... either that, or the gamma
on this monitor is way off. :^)  Sorry for how dark those all came out!)


I'm hoping we'll have similar interest during the Information Security Conf.
held by ISSA, also in Sacramento, next month.  I've yet to find any
volunteers
to burn a collection of CDs, though. <:^(
