what is so useful about this distro anyways, running from a CD is way too slow, and not at all feasable for much of anything except maybe testing to see how it is.

It's an excellent demo that I do not hesiatate to give to windoze users who are nagging me about 'linux being text mode' and 'having no graphics' and being 'strange' and having 'no office applications'. Knoppix kind of shuts them up rapidly on all these points. Also it is possible to hack (I mean customize) knoppix so you can run about with *your* favorite apps on a cd and use them where you want, without installing anything. Peter
