It'll be Knoppix, which you may have heard much praise of. The only
mangling will be the removal of apps, some of which are better off
removed too!

And it's welcome.

There is an opportunity here to strike while the iron is hot. I'm going
to strike it for all it's worth. If this is successful, you can expect a
lot more on Linux from PC World. I've found what I believe to be the
best bootable distribution of Linux around to push the concept, and if
you would like to go find holes in it then I appreciate the feedback. Go
to the English link on http://www.knoppix.org for the latest ISO or flag
down a circulating CD.
