i wonder . . .

[dep]

i was just moving some stuff around while bringing in stuff from the 
outside in anticipation of tonight's windstorm, and i happened upon a 
box containing boxed sets and original cds from several dozen 
now-defunct linux distributions. while i have it out, i'll add an 
actual boxed set of unitedlinux and my progeny stuff.

which makes me wonder . . . how many commercial linux distris have there 
been over the years? by this i mean those who got to the point of 
actually burning cds and offering them for sale -- cheapbytes and linux 
lab cds don't count -- or at least pasting them to the cover of some 
weird european linux magazine? there must have been a hundred or more.

i've heard of people who collect a[ssh]ol[e] cds; i'm wondering if there 
is a definitive collection anywhere of linux distributions . . .
