Knoppix is fine, no doubt, for those who are familiar with it. I did try it out, about ten years ago, when I was comparing Linux distros. I might check out the latest Knoppix live DVD, just to see what's in their toolset, but I doubt I would ever install it; so, in effect, it is still for me a single-purpose disc. It's a matter of what one is familiar with; your granddaddy is not mine. If I had infinite time, and infinitely many different computers, I would install and learn all the different distros. I just want something that works well, is GNU/Linux, free/libre, and secure. I don't like the SourceForge site, but it is a quick solution to my problem.
