Hi folks,

I work for a large media company who own a load of radio stations 
throughout the country.  I've been taking the opportunity to talk to 
some of the guys at the stations that I cover about Ubuntu and Linux in 
general.  So far I've got one person interested in dual booting and two 
others who switched to Ubuntu (albeit they switched back to Windows 
after a while).

Now I was telling a couple of the producers about Ubuntu Studio.  From 
what I have read it looks like it is a fairly good alternative to some 
of the more common applications out on the market (Adobe Audition for 
instance).  The problem is, although I have Ubuntu Feisty installed on 
my work laptop, I want them to be able to try Ubuntu Studio on their own 
computers.  From what I gather the Ubuntu Studio ISO image is an install 
only version.  What I'm wondering is, does anyone know if there is a 
live version out there in the wild, or if not how easy is it to put one 
together?

I'm thinking that if these producers can just pop in a CD/DVD in their 
computers to have a look they might be more inclined to switch to a dual 
boot (or Ubuntu only) system.
