I use it to repair Windoze Pc's

it runs in memory from the cd or usb
It finds most hardware,
It has tools for Harddisks, networking, etc,
I don't use it as a day to day OS but it could be installed
  I think it's just the Biz when you want to just run a PC and check out
CPU memory Hardware Network or remove files protected by the broken OS.




I think that it could also be used as an example disc on possible converts to Linux. You could run it on their computer to demonstrate that Linux is a worthwhile OS, as well as being free etc. All this without touching their hard disk at all.

With all the talk on the list about getting Linux to a wider audience, I thought it could be a good way of doing this. Just my idea.
