They will even ship multiple CDs for you to give out to all your 
friends. I've heard of some folks getting as many as ten.

I've played around with Ubuntu. It looks very much like a distro I could 
settle on for both desktops and servers and never feel shorted. There 
appears to be a considerable community growing around it. I'd guess 
Ubuntu is on its way to being a "top ten" distro.
