[COLUG] Companies that support a custom distribution

[Austin Godber]

Is it really necessary to make a custom distribution as opposed to  
doing a light install of a standard distribution?  Using common  
distributions will lighten your support burden/costs.  Of course you  
can only strip them down so much ... getting about 250MB base  
install.  I imagine there are other reasons that require a custom  
distribution.
