I just wonder where we get these from (apart from ubundu), but how. This would be useful for a user group meeting, as well as neils open cd set. if we are to go down this route, perhaps we should set up a 2nd mailing list say opencd@xxxxxxxxxxxxx, so we can offer support to the open cd via the lug, but without questions / answers being directed at the lug list, unless they are ubuntu related, that way a few of us can man the other list (and answer any questions etc). what do you think, again are there any display racks available for the open cd.?
