Here are two:

Couldn't do much, but there's no reason why you couldn't burn a custom CD with both the Linux distro and the web application on it. You'd not only have to setup a database in RAM, you'd also have to do your logging in RAM, or turn your logging off, as well as tell tomcat to create it's work directories in RAM. Possible, I think, but certainly not trivial.

There is a project (I forget its name) which is building a version of Linux designed to run on a CD. Thus you do not have to make any assumptions about what is on the PC. You can lock this version down so that it does not even look at their disk, and provided you use the VESA framebuffer you are more or less guaranteed to get it to run on the screen. I am sure that this would provide you a very good platform for such an application. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]> For additional commands, e-mail: <mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
