Yes, it would be nice to have all the workshop & tutorial applications
preinstalled in the LiveDVD, so people can recall things @ home.

BTW, I was thinking of editing a USB instead of a DVD. Cameron, do you
think that the image would fit in and work fine in a 4 GB memory
stick? Any drawbacks you can think of?

Oscar.
