What would have been different with: |

I'm extremly dense probably, since I really don't get it. |

Again, what would have been different in your happiness with another cd? |

So, without the live cd, the accessibility project would have a thing |
35 |
less to solve. I can't see how having more troubles and no advantage is |
36 |
a positive thing, but again: I'm probably extremly dense. |

Beautiful, but this has nothing to do with the need of a gentoo install |
50 |
cd. However a Gentoo demo cd is a nice project. Happy hacking, anyway! |
