Those who can burn and label professional looking cds or have extra shipit cds, goto computer stores and stick those cds under the box flap or the holes used for handles.

With any luck, the average consumer will think it is part of the computer software and pop it in the dvd drive. People will either try K/Ubuntu or the OpenCD software for Windows.

I don't think this is the right approach. It's better to explain to people what Ubuntu is and then let them try it if they are interested. That way they have someone that they can come to if they have questions and they don't feel like some strange Linux user tried to trick them with some random cd full of spyware.

You should read the page closer. There is an option to purchase mass quantities.
