Awesome.

And for me it's a combination of privacy, new Windows versions not being backwards compatible with older hardware/software and having to load my machine down with programs to stop hacking and virii.

No better method than a static build that can't be written to or traced...now we're talking.

Plus I have TONS of blank media and optical drives laying around doing nothing and whenever they upgrade I can just d/l and burn a new distro and even go back to an older one just by replacing the DVD.

Yeah...awesome :)

No, seriously.

Somebody said it best...imagine if the CIA walked up to your house and said 'we are creating a central data base of all citizens and we need to know everything about you and your personal life' there would be a civil war. But people trip over themselves to post their lives on Facebook...the CIA LOVES Facebook.

I'm not even going to start with Google...remember the electric Jesus in THX-1138...that's the voice of the future...
