Is that version compatible with XP?  I Forget which version I had, but it 
wasn't compatible.  It was handy though.

I have a couple of these CDs as well, I guess I could bring them to the
installfest if anyone wants them... I believe they are the full versions?
(they were handing them out at a conference, linuxworld SF)
