Particulaly if our CD won't have an attractive cardboard case, like the
Ubuntu CDs. I guess that 2000 CDs would cost approx 2500 or 3000
dollars, just with paper covers.

If we don't do bag inserts for the GNOME LiveCD then you should
definitely contact Ubuntu (mako) soon, who can maybe get some Ubuntu
LiveCDs shipped there quickly.
