Gotta check that, and Knoppix too :)

So, the linux part is covered, and in a very nice way :)

I just downloaded the windows version, but i'd have to reboot to check 
it out. What i don't know is if it'd work to just copy the exes (and 
all the related DLLs) in a directory on the CD, so that if the person 
(or some autorun mechanism) runs it, it works. I mean, does it need to
be installed (registry entries and other things), or could it run 
directly from the CD?
