Promotion of ubuntu with the added bonus that they can be updated so
no old distribution leftovers
Also faster copied... Yo u have only one burner but 4 to 8 usb ports
with speeds of 150x
And storage of more than 1gb and some talk about 4gb...

> In the first case, we could probably sell them for 10€, and a profit margin of +- €1/stick should be enough, in the second case, we can sell them for €15 (profit of +- €6/stick). Either way, I think that we shouldn't ask over €15 for a 4GB Stick these days. What do you think?

Best is to sell them with a small profit margin
I succeeded in sending these things to south of france at little cost
as they fit a standard envelope
Unless some mail man thinks it contains top secret f16 pictures...

The isos that would be used could be put on the website? Keep the
edubuntu for those special request from teachers?

Ps : I never tried any tax on web yet ... Is e-id in high demand or is
only one person on the ml
What is the current demographic of ubuntu vs kubuntu users?

Should we use a crashplan central server with the image so after
distribution , supportpoints can xdelta the last version of the image?
