The odds of the typical( 90% ) Windows user knowing how to burn an image is very very low. But with shipit.ubuntu.com life has become much easier for many. As Carl mentioned, a book/docs with a CD is the best for those venturing outside of Windows and Mac. Doug -- [email protected] http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
