Had a good Xmas with the family. The kids seemed very happy with what they got. I am not sure if my wife liked her gift but we will see. Guess I didn't need to be as worried as I was about not getting enough for the kids. We have spent the last few days relaxing and the kids have been playing with their new stuff.
For myself I have been doing some research and experimenting with some various bootable CD's. I have done quite a bit of playing with Helix which is a incident response and Computer Forensics build. It working very nicely on a windows machine and has quite a number of useful utilities. On the same lines I built the "Ultimate Boot CD for Windows". I have not spent as much time working with it yet but it looks very good. CD's like these can prove very useful in many difference circumstances. I like the fact that they make no changes to the hard drive so you don't have to worry about any changes to a stable system.
I also have tested a number of CD's that use the Knoppix (Linux) OS. This has given me a chance to try Linux with out having to do a complete system build. Very nice. I downloaded a Knoppix build with a number of Linux based games. It looks like it will be a great way to pass the time. I'll talk about these CD's more after I have had a chance to fully test them. If anyone has any other ones that you like please drop me a line or add a comment to the blog.
