Is it the End of the Road for Live CDs? 

,----[ Quote ]
| If it is not the end for live CDs , nor even the beginning of the end, 
| perhaps then it is the end of the beginning. They braced themselves and did 
| their duty, introducing a new generation of users to the genius of GNU/Linux 
| and extracting impetuous users from bricked machines—especially me. When they 
| eventually recede into the mists of fond memory we will remember them. Hail 
| Klaus. Bless you.

Death of the CD, a new world for Linux?

,----[ Quote ]
| I ask this, because, while we do in fact have distributions that run off pen
| drives, we don't have any way to write distros to flash cards yet.  And if
| the flash card is going to be the next medium of choice for music and movies,
| and likely all digital media, including software, how long will it be before
| people start demanding Linux distros that are capable of being installed from
| flash media?

Gdium Liberty Netbook Uses USB Key for a Hard Drive

,----[ Quote ]
| Here's a netbook with a twist: Emtec's 10-inch Gdium Liberty has no hard
| drive. Instead, it will ship with a bootable USB storage stick (dubbed the
| G-Key) that runs Mandriva G-Linux and has over 50 open-source applications
| pre-installed: including OpenOffice, Firefox, Thunderbird and Spam Assassin.

EMTEC unveils new Gdium netbook

,----[ Quote ]
| It appears that EMTEC’s new Gdium netbook is ready for prime-time, or in this
| case, ready for display at CES.  We went hands-on with a non-functioning
| prototype of the Gdium last August at IFA 2008 and now have pictures and
| specs for what appears to be the final product.
