"Sterling Software" is one name associated with that but I also remember a =
Vancouver BC based company doing similarly.
Sterling Software was at least successful giving away piles of these CDs
at conferences, as I got a couple (which are buried in storage somewhere).
I seem to recall that DejaNews (maybe after it got folded into Google?)
was at one point asking for people with those CDs to contribute copies
so they could complete their coverage. I know I tried to participate,
but can't seem to find that email now...
