Infomagic and source CD:sInfomagic and source CD:sPosted Jul 2, 2004 7:59 UTC (Fri) by eru (subscriber, #2753)In reply to: Who was first... by X-Nc Parent article: A Short History of Linux Distributions That is also what I remember. I don't think Infomagic ever made a distribution of its own, but they published CD:s with other peoples Linux distributions on them. I still have an Infomagic source CD from 1993. It's contents is very much like one would find on a public university FTP server in those days: various X11, GNU and BSD sources. By the way, for everyone with early CD:s like this: don't throw them away. They might became important sources if you ever need to find prior art for software patents. A CD like this is a publication with a known issue date and provenance.
