    Were you looking at the 6.06 version of that?  It's nearly as long, 
but that's due to customization idess.

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization/6%2e06

    I'd like to think someone would make a customization based on a 
Firefly theme; something that uses Firefly video for examples, and 
special wallpaper instead of the default...or some large corporation 
pressing copies with their logo, for use in thier cube-farms...

     Or, a Linux-friendly computer-support company putting it to use as 
an advertising campaign...a cool CD to hand out at parties and such to 
kick off advertising of Linux support, locally.  Aye?
