I downloaded the Knoppix one last night and it's quite nice-worked straight
away, only took about 2 minutes to load, and with a bit of 'mounting', I
soon had access to my hard drives It's a couple of years since I last
dabbled with Linux, and I was surprised to see how much 'easier' things
seemed to be, and how easy it was to set up network connections..etc.
Are Windows missing out on an untapped market here?
