Taking Puppy Linux for a Walk
,----[ Quote ]
| The two main uses for Puppy Linux (or any Linux live CD) are to:
|
| * Rescue files from the host PC's hosed hard drive or perform various
| maintenance tasks (like imaging that drive)
| * Compute on a machine without leaving a trace—like browser history,
| cookies, documents or any other files—behind on the internal hard drive

| everything.
