We talked a little about doing this (burning CDs) on Mon.  We'd need a
dedicated machine, and pre-setup to burn images.  Another issue was
the time required to do a single burn (what's the common time to burn
a CD these days?)
One thing we could do is some pre-burning of the rpm of the tuxbiz
site, as a pre-built example of e-commerce.  If any of the speakers
has their talks on slides or papers, maybe we could add those to the
the LBS disk?
