I'm completely in agreement here. I just created one of these CD's for an investor then realized that I had to upgrade mozilla. I'm not sure how much time I could put into this project but am willing if anyone needs me for anything. Note I think it would be a good idea to keep this down to one CD and the current CNUwinII is already over 600M. I think we'd have to pull a few things out (I *love* abiword but do we really need abiword *and* OpenOffice on the same CD?). Perhaps they should start having profiles for older boxes (Win3.1, 95 etc) you'd have abiword and programs that could actually run there. For Faster machines you'd have OpenOffice. Programmer tools could be pulled out onto a separate disc etc -- Carl Parrish (cparrish@carlparrish.com) http://www.carlparrish.com --- Registered Linux User #295761 http://counter.li.org On Wed, 2003-01-22 at 23:48, der.hans wrote: > Am 21.
