Yeah, I agree - significant wow with Knoppix. This weekend, I booted a Knoppix 
CD, and surfed the
internet while installing Gentoo on the *same* box. Very cool stuff being 
developed both in and out of
the Windows world. I think it helps all of us Winfolk to know how to use 
non-Win tools

Oh.  <g>

In that case, I've always liked Knoppix's ability to run from a CD.  Sure I
can do that with other OS's but it is cool to be able to do that and have
some tools handy.

Ahh... but I just said that it was cool - not useful.  I'm impressed by the
simple fact that it runs.

You might say from a purely technical aspect it's cool.  Utilitarian - maybe
not so much.

Many times, it's just the "Wow" factor, and nothing else.

I suppose the part that gets me, is the what would you use it for?  I'm not
seeing the application of such a concept exactly.

Actually, my malady is contagious :)
 
It's 4.7MB. I did not want to believe it would be that small when I first
look at it, that was why I was confused. But, from what I am reading, I can
see it's so small.
 
By the way, this does not appear to me to be any different from running
LINUX under a typical VM environment. So, what's new or so cool about that?
I guess I should play first before blabbing, eh? :). Downloading the Debian
image now.

Hallucination.....  It's a 47MB compressed file system image...  No where
near as imposing as it looks.  It's in bytes - no Kbytes...  ;-)

I looked at it, and my eyes (almost) popped out. Is that really a 4.7Gig
distro, or am I hallucinating - again? :)

If you haven't looked at this yet - you really NEED to.   I have it
installed, working and am getting ready to toss X on, and get it
functioning.

This is one of those things that comes along and you look at it and think,
"Huh....  that's really SUPER cool."

Check it out... it's worth the time.
