"the heathen", I love it! I must say that I've done quite a few demo's with Knoppix when folks pop in and ask, "Hey, what are you using there?". I also get questions when I pull my laptop out of my bag, open the lid and start typing within a few seconds. And, my "magic box" has proven successful in far more situations for me than for my MS-toting peers.
