OSWeekly.com: The concept of sponsoring a car
set to race in the Indianapolis 500 is an interesting way to get
the “Linux word out,” so to speak, but how do you respond to people
who feel like this is merely a little more than a Super Bowl ad?
Furthermore, is there some kind of distribution(s) download link or
fulfillment service setup for interested viewers?

Ted Woerner: I can address the first question,
but I’ll leave the second one to my ‘geek’ partners. First of all,
a Super Bowl ad would cost 7x what our primary sponsorship goal is
for this program…”
