Linux When Knoppix was first released it was heralded as revolutionary in the Linux world. Its autodetection and configuration capabilities were unsurpassed. Many of my colleagues remarked that if 'KNOPPIX can't do it, Linux can't do it'. Theoretically, one would be able to get a Knoppix CD, pop it into an arbitrary system, run it, save one's data to a partition, USB stick, etc....), reboot and the existing system would be left completely as it was before the CD was placed in the system.

Knoppix owns

I have to agree with everyone else in that although I do love my Win xp system (And I am certified in it to boot, you haters), knoppix does rule for linux.

This reviewer used a piece of crap machine that I wouldn't use for a doorstop. That's his fault. Knoppix was the only linux distribution that I tried that found and worked with my exotic and useless voodoo 4 pci card.

Its really in the theme of keep it simple while offering a wide range of windows managers.

Three Cheers for Klaus!
