title says it all. Thanks
Oh yea, I don't have a fast connection.

Redhat.com
Mandrake.com

All distro's are free. Check there websites.

I'm talking about a free CD-ROM. Do they offer that?

 

[AthlonMan]

Yes goto, ftp.linuxberg.com they have most of the Linux Distros cd iso files which do boot.

Guys.... I think Rison is talking about places that hand out actual free CD's of Linux and not just the .ISO's.

For the most part, they all offer the CD's to be mailed (snail mail) to you as long as you provide a minimal (shipping and handling). I thinks it's around $5 to $10 for that.

someone in the forums will probably mail one to you for a couple of bucks

I could mail you some if you'd like...LMK Otherwise www.linuxiso.org has about all the Linux Distros out, plus some FreeBSD, and NetBSD also. Seem to be pretty fast.

 

[fivepesos]

www.cheapbytes.com
www.linuxmall.com

both ship linux cds at near the cost of production and shipping, usually ~$5.

if u want to download cd image, www.linuxiso.org or the individual distros sites usually have those. www.mandrake.com , www.slackware.com , www.redhat.com , etc

Come on man, you should help support these people. Deal with a $40 charge for the cds and maybe even a book (if you choose a good distro). Dont be so cheap
