Keep an eye on Morphix because Alex is working on a way to add apps to the cd w/o remastering. Hopefully his first version should be ready soon - possibly next week.

Once Knoppix is installed it becomes Debian. You can ues apt-get to retrieve and install new packages from www.debian.org. You may also get and install tarballs from numerous places on the web.

This could be very interesting. I see alot of discussion about this very thing in the user mailing list.

--I use ' gaim ' instead of YIM. Yahoo's app is several years out of date.
