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)

Subject: Which live-CD should I recommand to a newbie evaluator
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,
