i'm really not as excited as i was the first time i ran this. i think i was just surprised to find a couple of applications i didn't expect such as, azureus, skype, and real player. this is an old version. the current release is 3.4-3 rc4. previous releases are all rc's (release candidate) or test versions. i guess that's how some of these linux distros are named. they're always updating, upgrading, or improving something. that's a good thing though. what i find now is a major problem. the synaptic package manager doesn't work. which means you can't update or auto install software. it comes with an old version of firefox also (1.0.3). it is a live cd that can be used to install itself and then update, i think. it really doesn't make much sense to install updates to a live cd only to lose them when you reboot. i guess it's time to stop playing with this version and check out the new one. everything else seems ok.

azureus. not sure why one would run this from a live cd unless there's a way to save whatever you download to your hard drive.
