It is good for: 1) Taking a 'test drive' to see if linux is something you want to pursue. Or to demostrate Linux to people who might not have seen or used Linux -- it is easier to lug a CD than a whole computer. 2) To use as a multifunction rescue system. 3) To use Linux on a machine that Linux cannot be installed on (eg not your machine). 4) To see if Linux will work on the machine in question before committing to installing on it. Can be used to test Linux compatibity with store display models, for example. -- Robert Heller -- 978-544-6933 / hel...@deepsoft.com Deepwoods Software -- http://www.deepsoft.com/ () ascii ribbon campaign -- against html e-mail /\ www.asciiribbon.org -- against proprietary attachments _______________________________________________ CentOS mailing list CentOS@centos.org http://lists.centos.org/mailman/listinfo/centos
