Here in Dubbo we handed out about 80 or so. I have not counted the 
remainder as yet. Every CD that was handed out though was done so with 
some dialogue with the receiver. We printed out a heaps of A4 
information sheets that were half about the Ubuntu CD and what it does, 
and half about what our club is about and these were given out with 
every CD as well.

I was burning the Open Source Free CD on demand for people. A lot of 
those who took them were happy to wait the few minutes for burning and a 
few returned after shopping to pick their copy up. I think I ended up 
doing about 20 or so.

Now I am just deciding what to do with the extras. I don't think it will 
take me long to distribute them locally through the club meetings and so 
forth.
