Since we last discussed this, Ubuntu 5.10 has been released. I
downloaded it tonight and I've just discovered that there's a HUGELY important feature on their Live CD that I think we should consider: the "Live CD" not only includes the standard "live" Linux environment but also a pretty Windows autorun "welcome screen" with *installers* for OpenOffice, Mozilla Firefox and GAIM for Windows!
IMHO, this is wonderful! We can hand out a _single_ CD that promotes using open source software on either Windows or Linux at the same time!
I just downloaded and burned one of these. I love it. It fits two of the
3 kinds of CDs we've burned in the past on a single disc.
