   As far as I can tell, their copy of RH5.2 in the Linux Mondo Pack I
ordered in November was the latest available.  In fact, they had to hold
shipments while they waited for the 5.2 discs to be made.
   Since I mentioned it, I'd have to put in my vote for the CheapBytes
Linux MONDO Pack as the best starter package out there.  For $12.99 you
get RedHat 5.2(Updated), Slackware 3.6, Debian 2.0 Binary, OpenLinux 1.3,
TurboLinux 3.0.1, and three archive CDs.  So, for about $18 (after
shipping) you can try out a bunch of distributions and pick the one you
like.
