How about two CD? One with OpenOffice, etc ..., second CD clearly labeled
for Advanced/Developers?
The thing that I see very useful from a business point of view is that I
can roll OpenOffice across several platforms. Don't care if we're running
w2k, solaris or linux. And "the price is right (tm)".
Keep that first CD very focused on the day-to-day business & J.6Pack apps.
Certainly we can easily fill a second (or third??) CD with Geek Bonus
goodies?

If it goes in easy and has a small footprint I'm up for it.

Exactly. We need to limit our resources, however, to those projects that we
think will get us return or to things where we have a couple of die-hards
willing to push it :).
