I wasn't all that worried about where the money goes when it gets
to debian, just that it got there. I check the donations page on
www.debian.org (before I posted :) and didn't see any mention of Linux
Central. I was just being cautious. So unless I hear otherwise I think
I'll place my order sometime after lunch. It sure will be nice to have a
CD of Debian kicking around, if been running it on about 5 machines since
the pre1.0 days. Having the CD's will defiantly cut down on my bandwidth
usage.
