I haven't investigated it, but I agree that it would be effective to
set up a PXE server with the 3 or 4 distros.  The issues are:
1. Who is going to do the work of setting it up. 
2. What are we going to use as the server and who is going to lug it
in. 

Maybe John and I can discuss this at the Installfest.
