I agree that SuSE is the best package I've seen, but I also got a box
from Applix, and they get second prize from me. They sent a full copy
of the Applixware office suite thing, and a "beany penguin toy" (It's
not Tux, but...)
Applix also seems to have sent out a previous shipment... even more
SHELF CDs than SuSE sent demo CDs.
Well, to the sponsors that have sent stuff:
Thanks! It's all great, even the old RH5.2 CDs from Linuxcentral are
good for giving out to reporters who could care less about the version,
and loosers who are being obnoxous.
To the sponsors that haven't sent stuff (and haven't otherwise helped):
Come on, if you send your package by overnight priority mail it'll get
here before the demo. You're getting at least some publicity from being
listed as a sponsor on the LDD main site, we (at least CALUG) want our
goodies! (Hey, think of the publicity SuSE is getting from giving out
*that much stuff*, and think how many people are going to get in their
mind "SuSE is cool. They gave us free stuff.", Don't you want that
image for *your* company?)
