And, no, I haven't gotten mine yet either...
I wish they'd hurry it up (that or just tell me "Sorry, but you're not getting a CD.").!

10/20 Update: We've hit our quota, so we're temporarily disabling new requests. Check back in mid-November for the next CD.
For those of you who have not yet received your CDs from October, the CDs are coming. Please be patient as we are working hard to meet everyone's request.

Yeah, I ordered mine before then and I'm still waiting on them ::mailman comes by, ironic:: so I can send one or both to my girlfriend, who wants to try them out (without giving out her address to the world).
They don't say anything about those still waiting from September..

Pogolinux sent me a couple distros. I got RedHat 6.2 a week after 7 was released and I got Mandrake 7.1 a week after 7.2 was released. Great timing, huh?!? http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/rolleyes.gif I haven't received the Debian or Caldera cd's though.

I assume then that noone on this thread has a cd burner or high speed inet access ?
If so just get an iso and make your own..

i do, but hey, if i can get a cd for free, that's less work, less time downloading, and hey, i didn't have to pay $1 for the cd...

And the CDs are outdated. http://www.linuxnewbie.org/ubb/biggrin.gif Unless its Debian (apt-get rules!), I'd rather burn the cd.
