I imagine Suse will be represented as well. My own thinking is that Linux 
Newbies are better off with mainstream, general purpose distros where 
they can more easily locate support, documentation, binary packages and 
such.

With that in mind, I've already burned one set of RH 7.3 (just the 3 
install ISO's, though, sans the 2 source volumes), plus a couple of 
copies of the OpenOffice 1.0 distribution / install CD I picked up at 
LinuxWorld. 

Since RH 8.0 should be available in a few days, I was holding off on 
burning any more 7.3 disks and will work instead on providing a couple 
sets of the most current RH package.
