Just got message from a loyal reader of mine asking if it is possible to stop Ubuntu from asking for the Ubuntu CD when he installs applications from packages. This is actually very simple, all you need to do is go to:

System>Administration>Software Sources

Select the “Third Party” tab and un-check “cdrom:” - reload your sources and your good to go!
