USPS Priority mail takes 2-3 business days. USPS Express mail is usually overnight, but in some small regions can be second day.
 


What payment forms do you accept?

Visa
MasterCard
American Express
PayPal

How can you afford to sell so cheap?
We do this by using a lot of automation and relying on word of mouth for business. Keeping labor and advertising costs down lets us pass the value on to our customers.
 


How are your CDs made?
Unless otherwise noted, all of our CDs are manufactured on premium quality replicated media.

 

What architecture do I need?

Do you offer bulk discounts?
Yes. If you are a retailer or if you just need a lot of CDs, you may contact our sales department for discount information. Please provide the quantity of CDs you need and timeframe in which you need them by.

 


Will my email or physical address be sold to spammers?
Absolutely not. We hate spamming as much as you do. Probably more.  We keep our records to ourselves.

 


What is this offer for source code?
If you would like the source code for any Linux product you purchased, it will be available for you to obtain for a period of 3 years after your receipt date.
