Get a complete security toolkit with BackTrack 3
,----[ Quote ]
| Once this is done, reboot the computer and use the BIOS or boot selector to
| boot from the USB keychain and BackTrack will load on the computer. At boot
| you can select from textmode or use Fluxbox or KDE.
|
| Once the system is up and running, the interface is quite useful. With the
| KDE interface, a number of standard tools are provided such as Firefox and
| Pidgin, amongst many others. The “BackTrack” menu item then allows you to
| find the tool you’re looking for or explore new ones through its categorized
| hierarchy.

distros... different professions, taste, expertise.
For security purposes, Windows is useful as a honeypot only.
