Open CD.org

Okay, one last word about OSS on MS. This may be common knowledge, but I'd missed it in the past. If you stick an Ubuntu CD (breezy badger anyway) in a windows machine you of course get the the choice to install Open Office, the Gimp and Thunderbird/Firefox.
But there is also a link to http://www.theopencd.org. Which is loaded with OSS stuff.
* AbiWord
* MoinMoin
* OpenOffice.org
* PDFCreator
Design
* Blender
* Gimp
* NVU
Internet/Networking
* FireFox
* Thunderbird
* Gaim
Multimedia
* Audacity
* Celestia
* Screensavers
Utilities
* 7-zip
* Notepad2
Games
* Sokoban
* Battle for Wesnoth
Like I say, I guess I've seen this before and just discounted it, but this seems like a hell of an idea - something you could pass out to people and get them to use very easily.
