Do they do that now?  They seem like the obvious place, very
Linux-friendly (everyone should go there anyway!), but I asked them
about a year ago about getting Debian CDs, and they seemed
uninterested.  If it didn't come pre-shrinkwrapped, and preferably in a
box....

I like 'em anyway, even if they didn't make me CDs.  They have a great
collection of LJ backissues, and copies of every distribution that's
ever been shrinkwrapped anywhere in the world (as far as I can tell),
plus all the add-ons.  They're directly on the other side of Lawrence
from Fry's in case anyone doesn't know where Computer Literacy is.

But it would be nice to find someplace that will burn-to-order hot off
the net.
