I agree (naturally;-)

It's too early to not have all the distribution in CDs. The main
mirrors at least (say the national ones) must have them all.

I've been looking around the CD vendors. Ideally, I'd like to buy:
* netinst (in an actual mini-iso form factor)
* businesscard (in an actual businesscard form factor)
* multiarch DVD
* multiarch CD
I have not been able to find any of these for etch. Haven't checked
_all_ the US vendors yet, but

Hi debian-cd,
With etch having 20+ CDROM sized ISOs per arch (plus businesscard, netinst,
kde, and xfcd) I am beginning to be reminded of when I first started using
