Hi,
I didnt mean to hurt anybody..
But as a student knoppix really helped me much , as a newbie i tried several distros and found knoppix most friendly and i keep close to it till today
It even helped me to convert a great no of my friends in a third world country like mine with no broadband connections, to linux coz of it ready to use structure with wide support to soundcards,vedio(even old pcs with less RAM runs it),built in players,and nice looking (even MS XP cannot match).But when Ubuntu came coz of its freecds many peoples are going after it and to my despair their number continues to go high.Thatz y I asked this qtn to know if its a global trend
