I saw this over at Digg, and had to try it. It's a version of Linux that you can burn to a CD, and boot the computer from the CD. Basically, a “no install” OS.

So I have downloaded the ISO, burnt the CD and attempted to boot my laptop with it.

If it works, I'll post a quick review of it here. I might have to try 2 or 3 “boot from CD” linux distros to get it to work.

Update: After getting a few error messages, it booted successfully. Screen shot is below.

My main problem now, I guess, is figuring out what to do with Linux now that it's loaded. It doesn't come with a web browser, so I might have to find one. And it took about 30 minutes to load. It's nice to see it work, though. Cool!
