Tidying up after Linux 16768

Thanks for the tips. If I do something like this I would prefer to buy a CD somewhere rather than download it. I'm more than able to burn a CD from an iso image but my internet connection is a 512k DSL line and downloading several CD's worth of iso images is still slow. I guess I could start the download and just let it run for a few days but I don't.

Installing the software on a system is no big deal. I have a spare machine at home that I can experiment with. All my "important stuff" is on my primary desktop machine. The spare machine is a dual processor PIII-866Mhz machine with 768k RAM. Since there is nothing that I need to preserve on that system I think nothing of blowing away the hard-drive and installing whatever OS I want on there. The machine has two HDD's and I have a copy of Norton Ghost (legal copy too) that I can use to save or restore disk images in a matter of minutes.

So maybe I'll pickup something like Mandriva Limited Edition. Other than download it (which I can patiently do) do you know of a place where I can get one? Something like CompUsa, Staples, Office-Depot perhaps. Not that I've actively searched for distros but I don't remember seeing them around anywhere either.
