it is of £ 3.50 per dvd

*shop.canonical.com/product_info.php?products_id=117&osCsid=4bed7710bca618e1641bac4413434591

Ubuntu is free to everyone and Digit is providing DVD of that. What Canonical charges is for delivery and Media cost if you order a DVD or CD from them, that is.

Whoa! Virtually Every Antivirus, AntiSpyware, Drivers etc. DVD contents are quiet good though low on developer tools. VS 2008 Express Edition Final All in One DVD would have been of much more use. Anyways, Great content in both DVD and Mag.

The first time i opened the excel file in Openoffice it crashed.I read it after recovering it.
Good DVD content.
Just pop the DVD after fresh install & start installing.
All softwares in one place.
Thanks Digit. :)

1. 40 Pages each
2. No. Pouches.
3. I don't know, actually. All I do is scream, "I need DVDs!" and I get them.
4. The official edition. Even if we were to customise it, you'd end up with the same software, plus Opera.
5. Because.
6. It's a subjective matter. Some like it. You don't. I forgive you.

1. sweet
2. will do
3. thanks for the help:rolleyes: "I NEED DVDs"
4. atlease you could have added some good themes and codecs, mplayer, xine, java, flash player, etc(and opera)
5. samajh gaya:(
6. all past issues showed celebs, these show cartoons:confused: you could have asked john abraham to pose with a joy for gaming... or sharukh with an N97, iPod for entertainment... dhoni with electronic gloves for personal tech... aishwarya rai with a asus lambourghini for computing... you get my idea...

This is not a too much impressive content.what about the 3 movies.i can just hope that they are not black and white. Who will really listen those free music. The only good thing is Ubuntu DVD. N Mags.

1. Of which how many pages are ads?
2. Phew, looks like I would have to search the box or plastic pouch pouch or something myself:(
3. Screaming did not work for me:( (so I towed my sorry ass to the shop to get discs)
4. You mean that it can play non open codeced stuff directly, like mp3s.
5. Agree
6. I like the covers.

1. That's cheating. How different is that from a 200 page magazine, which is the usual size of special issues?
2. Does screaming "I need DVD writer" works too?
6. I liked the covers. Better than John Abraham.

You gotta be kidding! This is art. And honestly, I love the covers, they look fabulous. This is way better than some bimbo model on the cover!

@blackpearl: Were you expecting 200 pages per magazine? :wink:
