I can burn you a Debian set, if you like.

I can do:

 - The two-CD Official Debian 2.1 ("slink") distro.  Released
officially in March 1999; updatable, but the updates are mostly
confined to Y2K fixes and security updates.

 - The single-CD Debian "slink-and-a-half" distro as distributed by VA
Linux in the pretty box.  Not as out of date as Official Debian, but
some of the software is a bit on the old side.

 - The four-CD frozen "potato" distribution (due to be Debian 2.2 one
of these days).  I run a nightly mirror, so it's fresh with the latest 
bugfixes available.  May be a bit flaky in the installation, but very
up-to-date and rather bug-free once installed.

Let me know what you want.  I'll charge you $2 per disk.  Please let
me know ASAP if you want the potato disks; I'll actually have to build 
the images for that before burning them.
