Alright, there seems to be a fair amount of interest here. This is what I'm gonna do. I'll make a dozen blank CDs with a nice looking label and plastic cases for the discs and send them to John, free of charge. He can charge whatever he likes for them, as a "promo" or "deluxe" disc or whatever as a fundraiser. If they sell out really fast or something, I'll send John some more, but after the first dozen, I'll need to charge for them - just enough to cover my costs so I can buy more later, should it come to that (I currently have almost 100 of the damn things).
These discs will be the business card CD format, and I've already found the artwork I want to use. It's a really neat old picture of a circuit board. I intend to change the text on the chips so it looks like "Damn Small Linux" was printed on them instead of whatever was there to begin with. The image is a big one, and the one image will provide the background for a whole page of CD labels. That means that there will be 8 slightly different backgrounds. It makes my job easier, and it adds a little incentive to buying another disc later on.
If John or somebody else here decides to do something with this idea, then I might do something similar with 80mm CDRWs.
I'll keep you guys posted on how it's going. If I get some free time tonight, I can probably get these discs in the mail to John by next week.
