Games livecd / dvd

[tim oconnell]

how about a strictly gaming release of fedora, sort of like a half-life mod,
where the kernel is streamlined for graphics throughput and  bundled with
graphics card drivers (many which are only available after you try to play a
game, quite annoying) and a myriad of popular games, all of which should fit
on a DVD.  remember, DVD's are frequently double-sided and dual layered,
giving you at least twice the storage space.
