What are its advantages over Kinneret or Knoppix?

As far as I know it, it's just a Knoppix with Israel as a default locale,
which is not an advantage over the "base" Knoppix (as I said, the guy is a
native English speaker, so an English interface might be actually better
for him)

I have the great pleasure to help someone try Linux and am not sure
which distro will demo to him Linux capabilities for his needs better.

That guy is a native English speaker (so I suppose an English interface
would suite hime better) but his job is technical writing and journalism
in Hebrew, so he needs to be able to read and write Hebrw MS Office
documents (in MS format) as well as access Hebrew sites.

I already pointed him to re-try OpenOffice 1.1rc4, a year ago they tried
1.0 and loved its English support but couldn't use it because it totally
lucked Hebrew support.

They would love to try Linux but are affraid of loosing what WindowsXP
gives them today before they know how to get it in Linux (e.g.
compatible file formats, access to limited Israeli sites).

So I pointed them to Kinneret, because I though of the better Hebrew
support, but then I realised that maybe Kinneret is not such a good
choice because it's main advantage is the Hebrew interface, not the
support for Hebrew web sites and documents, is this correct?

So which live CD would be a better fit for this situation, if any?
Kinneret or Knoppix (or something else)?

Thanks,
