The other day i was sulking about my lack of a working box with Debian running on it and low and behold a miracle occured. I was advised by my Californian friend Karsten to check out a little thing called KNOPPIX. All i can say is thank you Karsten...it's like Christmas came early!!! I have been using it for a few days now and it is just amazing. Man either this thing is as good as i think it is or i am just really easily amused....or maybe both. Needless to say I am once again happily hacking and the world is generally a better place.
