Good links, this is the stuff.  I dloaded the iso and it booted fine off
two machines, although not off a compaq deskpro.

After some searching, i found a site that is selling starter sets of
recordable business card cds, 10 plus labels for $30.

I'm thinking of putting the linuxcare image on a hard drive and adding
some of the tools from trinux, to make it a better network security tool,
then iso and burn.
