Description Marcus Giles 2003-08-11 07:08:52 UTC
I would like to purchase all the X86 based install cd's you have on offer, so 
that when we have the next LAN party/Linux installfest we can accomadate most 
people.. look professional (pretty disks) and support Gentoo.
But to buy each set would cost more than we are willing to outlay. (5 x $15.00 = 
75.00 bulk cash!).
So I suggest an "Action Pack" of all the x86 cd's Plus a live CD , 1 copy of the 
install instructions, and if its viable.. some Gentoo stickers/posters. It might 
also be an idea to stick a CD in there with all the doco a geek could want plus 
some artwork that would make a good poster..?


The price should be lowered on account of a bulk order, and less physical copies 
of the doco..

There's been zero movement on this bug for a couple of years. Can we go ahead 
and close this?

yeah might as well, I'm not even using Gentoo these days anyhow... defected to
Ubuntu cause I'm lazy :-P
