That is ineed what I was getting at. The first CD has all that you need to run a desktop. If you want nmore, use the other CD's. Now if this CD would be able to work as a live CD (not a live DVD) that would be an added bonus to show SUSE to others.
Hmm. I somehow suspect this is going to be a bit difficult. With a DVD you always have sufficient amount of space to have both a live version and an install version on the same disc. With a CD, I suspect it will have to be either an installer or a live, but not both on the same medium. The gurus should speak here. Of course, if it were a barebones inventory of packages, then one CD would suffice, but hey, what value would that have as a demonstration live CD?
This would benefit people who are not able to use the FTP instalation and have no access to high bandwith.
Exactly. People like many of the dialup users here in India (and elsewhere in the world).
For SUSE such a CD would be very easy to add to magazines if the marketing department would like to do so.
Marketing department? Does openSUSE have a marketing department? I suspect not! Magazines with an ounce of sense in them should of their own initiative distribute openSUSE, IMHO.
They even could do a marketresearch on what people want on their PC with priorities. That way they do someting for you. ;-)
