this part is not quite true. its generally accepted that as long as

then notifying people who received the binaries of their rights and

there are no modifications*
I agree with Paul. He's got all of the included package's web site
links on his web site. If you want to duplicate what he's done you can
just jump to all of those links, get all the source code, and build it
yourself. Thirty bucks doesn't sound like too high a price to avoid the
headaches though (assuming it works ;-)

The link list is far away from "all".
eg.: libs, kernel, etc.
The price is not in question. But I think, if one use GPL'd software
commercial, the distributor must make sure that the source is available
to the users, I mean the complete source here.
This stick is a bit more then a bundle of applications were a link to
some project site will suite the requirements of the GPL.
