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.
