A Short Review of KNOPPIX v6.0.1

,----[ Quote ]
| What can I say but Knoppix is a great distribution! Always has been. Even 
| back when I was in college I used to use Knoppix on the Microsoft Windows 
| 2000 client desktops just so I can remain somewhat sane and continue to work 
| in an environment I was more comfortable in. Even when I used to be a service 
| technician, Knoppix was always around to be able to perform data 
| recovery/transfers from one medium to the other. Over the years I have 
| continued to use Knoppix as the excellent tool for data recovery that it is. 
| To those less familiar with the GNU/Linux operating system, Knoppix is based 
| off of Debian and designed to run from a CD/DVD. It is a good way to run an 
| operating system without installing it, which also gives you access to all 
| your hardware. The latest CD image is only 661 MB.

Knoppix: live CD par excellence

,----[ Quote ]
| Knoppix is another classic example of the innovation that can come about when
| good code is avaiable under user-friendly licences like the GPL.

Knoppix 6.0 released

,----[ Quote ]
| Knoppix 6.0 has now been released with several new features and updates. The
| last update to Knoppix was in March of 2008 with version 5.3.1. Knoppix is a
| bootable CD distribution of Linux that incorperates automatic hardware
| detection. The CD can be used to demo Linux, as an educational CD, a rescue
| system, etc. It uses on-the-fly decompression so it can have up to 2 GB of
| data and software installed on it.

Knoppix 5.3.1

,----[ Quote ]
| At the recent CeBIT computer fair, Klaus Knopper finally released a new
| version of his popular Knoppix live-CD/DVD variety of GNU/Linux. The initial
| version was fine for the CeBIT crowd but had some problems, the most obvious
| of which was a mixture of languages in menus if you booted with the
| parameter "lang=" (by the way, it is now "lang=us" rather than "lang=en";
| this will take getting used to after many years of using "lang=en".)

,----[ Quote ]
| Knoppix 5.3, after pausing for a year, was presented at CeBIT, in Hannover,
| Germany. Our colleagues were there, and got the DVD live-edition that's
| available with the German c't magazine during the event. The Open Source
| Audio-Desktop ADRIANE – which is a part of the live distro – was presented by
| Adriane and Klaus Knopper at CeBIT.

Who needs Windows Vista when you can have Knoppix 5.1.1 Live DVD?

,----[ Quote ]
| Well, in the first place there is no comparison between the two.
| In fact, there can't be any. Why? Simply because, Windows Vista
| is plain Operating system, with very little bundled apps. Whereas,
| Knoppix is complete Operating System bundled with hundreds of
| software that ranges from games to office!
|
| When you install Windows Vista (it requires whopping 6.7GB hard
| disk space at a bare minimum!), what you will get is - much hyped
| 3D aqua Desktop, a so-called secure operating system that bugs you
| to hell - by asking for every stupid task to Continue. In addition
| to that, It had about a dozen utilities such as paint, notepad,
| wordpad and a few games.
