[ILUG] Bootable business cards

[ILUG] Bootable business cards

How about using a hot 'cookie cutter' style widget? CD's in the shape of a ginger bread man anyone?

Presumably the hot metal cutter would also seal the edge, and prevent the gold stuff chaffing away.

 I was wondering. Could you make a custom version of your favourite
distro, that's cut down, burn it onto a CD, and then stick the CD on a
lathe, and trim it down ?

 Or would it rip the goldy sparkly stuff out of the CD ?
