- From Personal Computer to Impersonal Chameleon

,----[ Quote ]
| The easy swappability of bootable PC CD-ROM disks has been put to great use 
| in the form of the live CD. With Live CDs like Ubuntu or Knoppix. The 
| intriguing thing about these is that they do not change your PC in any way. 
| They simple take it over for a while. When you reboot having removed the Live 
| CD, the PC will revert to whatever it was before - generally whatever 
| operating system is installed on the hard disk.

Testing the Linux Waters - Live CD vs Dual Boot

,----[ Quote ]
| There are some people whose interest in Linux is borne out of mere curiosity.
| And a good number of them can’t muster enough courage to go all the way right
| away. That is, to outright replace their Windows working environment with
| Linux. It is understandable that they would prefer a setup wherein they can
| continue working in the environment that they are familiar with and be able
| to try out Linux during their spare time. Luckily, these people have a couple
| of options: a Live CD or a Dual Boot System.
|
| Live CD’s
|
| Live CD’s are bootable compact disks that allow you to explore the features
| of an operating system (in this case, Linux) as if you were in that
| particular OS. To use, you simply load the Live CD into your optical drive,
| boot up your PC, and presto! – You’d be on your way to your first Linux
| experience.
