I was digging through some stuff and stumbled on this. To think it’s been 15 years. Crazy what you used to be able to get a free CD of back in the day.

    Yes that’s how they killed Mandrake/Mandriva, which was superior IMO at that time (easier install, KDE based, better hardware support).

    Of course, Mandriva’s management is not blameless, but Ubuntu’s free CDs were the cherry on top of the cake.
