Of course a more recent one is handy when in my situation.  I have
dial-up, a sucky AT&T dial-up at that.  I try to install from the
packages on the CD then upgrade later.  That's the only benefit that I
would see from more recent releases.  Of course, you still end up
downloading it all anyway.  ;-)

I just like the Knoppix thing myself.  It "seems" faster to me.
