Guy's i recently came upon a website that ships free linux cd's to anyone across the globe and they bare the shipping charges and you don't have to pay a single cent . the site is
"shipit.ubuntulinux.org" for ordering cd's and their offiial site is ubuntulinux.org.they are placed in England. i just thought someone minght try their version of linux or may need it
I got a bunch of their cd's a month or two ago.
Ubuntu is a nice distro. But because its a one cd install you get a really bare bone system (well its really well stocked compared to windows.)
Its nice to give out to friends. And it comes with a live cd for every install cd(execpt for the 64 bit cds')
Its also the first 64 bit os i had on my amd athlon 64 3600+ and it worked fine.
(And yeah, its free and the quality is great)
I just ordered me a couple..
allways good to give to friends ;)
I'm more a slackware then debian (ubuntu = debian++) fan but hey, I'll give it a go..

"LinuxMall" used to be a great source of multiple distros and other software (office applications and all sorts :) ) then the dreaded "S upremely C orrupt O rganization" bought a large share of them and they went down the toilet :(
I liked them because although you had to pay a bit, it was so little that it did not get import duty charges :)
IMHO SCO have a lot to answer for................

I just got a copy of Ubuntu with one of the magazines at my work. We get free CDs from magazines that don't sell within a month. Thats a great website to have though, thanks a lot :)
Linux Emporium
It isn't free, but it's another site.
They do have freebies though, it is for superceded discs :
