It does. The GPL doesn't prohibit *distribution* of GPL'ed works with proprietary software on the same media. They can slap whatever license they want on the iso image, but you obtain it legally you can rip it apart and distribute the pieces. This came up before last July concerning some other CD which I'm not allowed to mention here (See -private archives). Peter
