I always load open office. I can not imagine a work computer not to
have open office. I can see how it could be left off due to space
constraints. It is not a big deal, I just load it after the first
boot. The main thing I want from a live CD is answering the question:
Will fedora work?

For serious usage, the first items to check other OSes for are

Hi,
Booted Fedora 13 RC#2 LiveCD,

Ask yourself
I think one of the prices you pay for the LiveCD is the
space constraint forbids putting large packages on the
CD. I tend to use the install DVD unless I am worried

easy to add Openoffice, octave, gcc and other packages.
It is a question of

Don't understand why Fedora LiveCD can't do the same.
I dont understand why each Linux distribution must make all the same
