Why Knoppix?
Complete GUI based Linux OS on Bootable CD-ROM
This is the graphical version of Linux even better than Linspire, Mandrake, SUSE , notsoRedHat and others. Comes with Wine to run many windows software, such as MS office 97/2000; it's also capable of running Linspire debian packages. Linspire doesn't even come with an office suite if you don't pay them $129! You don't even need to install knoppix; you put the cd in the cdrom drive, turn the computer on, and it boots directly from CD. All the application and the Operating System itself runs directly from the cd! YES- NO INSTALLATION AND NO HARD DRIVE NEEDED! ONLY requirement is that your computer has to have Boot up from CD enabled in BIOS, and your bios has to support it. Most PII and higher computer actually support it anyway.
The latest version 5.1.1 comes with a utility called knx-hddinstall that lets you install knoppix in your hard drive, if you decide to keep knoppix. Otherwise, you can always boot off the cd- a 1-minute process to get your system configured to run Linux, and yes, no without any installation or modification to your existing files! Great tool to try out Linux without the risk or hassle!

Amazing, isn't it? That's the power of Linux, never ceases to amaze me.
Why Linux?
You don't need separate license to operate on different computers in your household. Even the commercial Lindows OS lets you do this! Try asking Microsoft about sharing their OS! Most software for Linux are freely available on various sites on the web, and most are covered under GPL. Linux is the most modern operating system that supercedes $200 windows in power, stability, security, and versatility. Modern Linux is much more user friendly than windows, contrary to popular belief of Linux being OS for geeks. It never crashes! You can run your Linux for weeks, and it still won't freeze. Linux now has windows like menu based interface, with amazing graphical desktop applications that would cost you thousands of dollars in windows world.
Does knoppix come with browser / email utilities, and ready to go online?
Yes, most network cards are supported by this OS, and network is automatically setup at startup. Winmodems are not supported, just like lindows and other Linux. Ready to browse once you have a compatible modem/network access to go online. Also, it even comes with CD burner software! a $99 value if you compare to Microsoft.

-
