      I use it, it has some nice features, you can turn a non linux box into one in five mins, and have all your security tools right there, very useful/dangerous.

        I use it, and I like it. I had to remaster the cd because it didnt have some of the tools I usually use though. Anybody interested in remastering it, ill edit the link for the idiot-proof guide into this post as soon as I find it.

        Update: Here it is:

            Knoppix is quite handy to carry around in your backpack for those pesky school computers with filter software. ;-)

                I have used it, it is quite nice. It took me all of 5 min. to decide it will have a place in the ol' software pouch.

                  Has anyone compiled a powerPC port using Yellow Dog? I’m not going to burn up the few hours of sleep I get if the project has already been done.

                      In one of the linux format ( http://www.linuxformat.co.uk/ ) issues I got to play with demolinux http://www.demolinux.org/ ... pretty handy and functional as well.

                            Same thing here but they are so horrably secured it only takes a few seconds.
                            hmmmm...... nice round set of features....good price.... but will it draw attention....? will supermodels stop in their tracks and say, "damn! who's that guy with the SEXY laptop?!" - I don't remember who possibly blackwave
