    Live cd for display purposes?

    Im looking for a simple "live cd" that I can run on an old pc that my computer club has dismantled and put back together on a board. We want to show the pc running "something" any suggestions?

    knoppix or ubuntu live CD. Both work great, whilst ubuntu is more popular, knoppix live cd seems to be better for demo's from experience.

    +1 for Ubuntu Live.

    Use Open Office to run a slideshow locally, or Opera in kiosk mode to run in a web browser. [Kiosk mode so people can't fiddle with it.]
