Dabbling in Linux Live CDs

I've been trying some out on my old laptop, sling in the CD and run Linux off it. So far I am liking
Kate OS

a lightweight fast distro, looks nice and runs fast. With XFCE desktop environment. The snappiest of the CDs I've tried.

Wolvix

is also feature packed and looks good (choose between window managers XFCE and Fluxbox, which are my current faves (appearance and design-wise)). Though they are both based on Slackware and not sure I'm ready for escaping the ease of Ubuntu yet. It comes with multimedia apps like MPlayer, Kino and Audacity and Internet apps like WiFi Radar and XChat. It comes in two variations Cub, which is a small edition designed to fit on a flash drive (256 MB) and Hunter, the one I tested, the HD version.

I've briefly (very briefly) tried FreeSbie which i s a FreeBSD distro, which took ages to load, but looks very deep. It features xffm, a window manager I had not come across before with many features, but looks complex. I'll be checking FreeSbie out in more depth later.

I still have more CD flavours to taste.
