Looking for old Fedora branded media
by Scott Dowdle 21 Mar '12

21 Mar '12

Greetings, I take old CDs and DVDs and make wall art out of them... basically by tacking the disks to the wall to form letters that spell stuff. For example, I have a wide variety of Linux install media (branded, not self-burned) that I tacked to the wall to spell the word "Linux"... and a bunch of old Windows / Microsoft media that I spelled "Windows" with. I do this to decorate the rather bare computer lab / classroom walls where I work (Montana State University Bozeman). Example: http://www.montanalinux.org/files/images/srinivas-and-art.preview.jpg (lots of Red Hat media) I'm looking for old Fedora media so I can spell the word "Fedora". I currently have a handful of Fedora 11 - 14 media but am looking for any older media that people might have... or more 11 - 14 too. I wonder with what Fedora release they started making the branded media? If anyone has any old media that they don't want anymore, please consider mailing it to me (address in signature below). Again, I'm looking for the branded, professionally done stuff, not the home-made stuff... unless of course you have some fancy looking home-made stuff. If anyone has Red Hat disks or Ubuntu disks... or any other distros, I'll take those too because eventually, I'll probably want to spell those too or make additional "Linux" displays. Thanks in advance, -- Scott Dowdle 704 Church Street Belgrade, MT 59714 (406)388-0827 [home] (406)994-3931 [work]
