Isn't it possible to create a custom Ubuntu that has the mp3 codecs and such
already installed?

Mark and I found some problems last night testing Ubuntu 10.04 LTS.
1. Audio/video CDs and DVDs
We discovered that Ubuntu 10.04 LTS has problems automounting CDs and
audio CDs in particular. Ubuntu does not come with MP3 codecs installed
so we could not play, and therefore test, audio CDs. We were able to
test the sound subsystem another way.
I suspect we'll have the same problem with video CDs and DVDs because of
missing codecs.
2. Printer setup
Mark attached the Laserjet HP6L gravity feed printer we typically use
for final testing. Ubuntu detected the printer, but there were no local
printer drivers for it. Instead, Ubuntu tried to download drivers from
the Internet. Since we don't have an Internet connection yet, that
didn't work.
