If I had more time, I'd really like to throw together an information
sheet to hand out with CDs that would talk about stuff like this and
provide links to Ubuntu Canada and other community resources. Handing
someone a CD is great, but I feel like it's setting a lot of people
adrift a bit.
But if they just pop it in their Windows machine, yeah, WUBI will
autorun. And that's great. I don't think most people even think about
booting from CDs.
