Thanks for all the feedback so far,<br>
<br>
I'm gonna look at maybe including both the major Desktop Envs if a
little slimmed down and some alternatives too! if it will fit!<br>
<br>
I'll look at games too, or even including Cedega (cvs) i don't think
doom3 would fit on the CD!<br>
<br>
Will get to it!<br>
<br>
Anyone want to volunteer to make a start with the theme?<br>

Live Distro based on Knoppix/Ubuntu Debian (Knoppix already has scripts

there are many reasons to choose both Desktop Environments, and
although i agree on clenliness, i think KDE is slightly more intuitive
for windows converts... just a thought tho' because i would be happy
with either!

agreed, and my own personal preferance would massively depend on the
DE... especially as i think Konquerer is too difficult for noobies to
add plugins! - great as a file manager not so strong as a browser!!
