Cameron-

Did you mean putting a CD into the magazine itself, or just writing about the idea?

The latter would be great, we could do that.

I don't have control over the former issue, though -- that would likely require some monetary cost from OSGeo or the magazine to burn and insert the CDs, no?

Michael,
Computer magazines often include a free CD like the latest Ubuntu 
distribution, along with a two page spread about the software on the CD.

We have a Geospatial LiveDVD which could fit that bill, and which the 
community could tweak to include Linux as well as Windows software.

Is this of interest to you?
