freitasm: Ubuntu also sends CDs for free...

Is that "FREE $0.00" or "free but we put you on our mailing list and .........."?

I don't know... Taniwha here on Geekzone had a few CDs and gave me a copy. You can ask her.

Ubuntu is a well respected fork of Debian, and I doubt there would be any UCE worries... (or even be forced to be on the mailing list).

ASlthough I would recommend anyone dipping into linux to join a couple mailing lists related to their distro... just like joining a car club really...

Car Club implies looking under the bonnet and tinkering with things, but I guess, that is the way of Linux :-)
