like you want. Where else can you get a deal like that on a baby? ;)

==================== FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE ====================
Linux Systems Labs, The Linux Publishing Company is pleased to announce:
-----> TRI-LINUX(5) <-----
Our TRI-LINUX release has grown to FOUR(4) CD-ROMS.
While maintaing our commitment to the Linux community and to a quality
product we have expanded TRI-LINUX to become a four(4) CD-ROM set. It now
includes:
o Official Debian 1.3.1 (2 CD set)
o Redhat 4.2 (intel) [includes contrib and updates]
o Slackware 3.2
Which one to use?
We created this CD set especially for those who are undecided.
You can install all three in 3-4 hours and see for yourself. Redhat
and Slackware have the easiest install and are both maintained on
the internet by small companies with long track records serving the
Linux community. Debian is maintained by a band of 120 volunteers
across the globe via the internet and its popularity is steadily
increasing.
These distributions are GPL versions. They are complete working Linux
releases less any commercial "third party" software.
