I was in those masses. They sent me a free CD in the mail when I was a teenager!
Nice! I read about that they would sent CDs for no cost. Also in countries where internet infrastructure wasn't there yet, they were giving out CDs for free locally in a bus in example, like advertisements. Having a millionaire backing up a distribution surely helped its adoption. :D Actually this was one of the reason why I had confidence in the future of Ubuntu, back then.
I still have one somewhere. 9.10 release. Too bad I have no cd drive.
