On the down side is that the CD is in ISO 9660 format which makes
it next to useless from the point of view of using standard UNIX
tools to copy it to wherever.  But, it does come with this program
that symbolic links the contents into /usr/freeware.  It's pretty
straight forward to hack the code to output shell comands to | sh.
