We already do this in our K-12 School district. :) We handle the download of the image and the burn. All the student/faculty has to do is supply a CD. We have some restrictions on the whole thing, but mainly as long as we don't break the license of the software. So far, it has been mainly Open-Source projects and ISO downloads... Debian is at the top of the list! -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
