Yes, I like the idea as well. STANG read this! Let's just say, I have a
near limitless supply of 3.5" floppy diskettes (I have about 250 blank and
formatted ones here at my HipPad doing nothing) that I could toss copies of
all my favorite Internet free/shareware onto. And luckily, I have a printer
that could kick out some nice SubG labels for these diskettes. This could
be an add-on to the upcoming 'zine <TO BE NAMED>. "Send $1 for a copy of the
zine, send $7 for a zine and a copy of the Official SubGenius Internet
Starter Kit".

Granted, all the software I've got is MS-Windows oriented, and designed to
be used with a SLIP/PPP connection. But I bet a majority of users do have
that kind of scenario (sorry Stang).

Just some fuel for the bonfire.
