I like the live cds and they work well when it becomes available would be worth a try.
Recently got Knoppix boots up in about 2 mins the only thing I had to configure was the modem. You can play around with everything without worrying about reinstalls way cool

Bruno tried both Move and PCLos earlier and preferred PCLos. Last I heard Tex was just waiting for the loan of a USB key to finish testing of usb home.
At that point it should win hands down. The download edition of Move does not include USB support. -------------------- Owyn

Well, it´s better then the beta . . . . . but the menu is really made for people who never came near Linux . . . . . all names of apps are replaced by descriptions by what they do . . . . . Like: "send email" for kmail and "browse the internet" for konqueror . . . . . Was nice to try this one, but there are better Live CD's . .
Just for the statistics: ( boot to KDE in minutes ) SlaX: . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1:35 PCLos:. . . . . . . . . . . . 1:45 Mandrake Move: . . . . 2:05 Knoppix:.. . . . . . . . . . 2:10 SUSE Live:. . . . . . . . . 5:55 DSL:. . . . . . . . . . . . . . 1:03 >> No KDE so hard to compaire !! Bruno

Bruno:
Make sure you re-run this check when PCLos PV5 is available. A lot of work has been done to improve both the boot and application activation times. -------------------- Owyn

Well, I downloaded fine, but I notice that the selection of available programs is a bit sparse. No Mozilla.

If you want a better selection of files then wait for PCLinuxOS version V! I think the verdict already came in that it will be a top notch distro.
