    =o This isn't your favorite live cd, but you're favorite one to have in general.

    Vote away, just remember Puppy has feelings too.

    I like Fedora as it has most of the required features you need that windows has.

    thus far I tried fedora core 3 and ubuntu and I have had the most success with ubuntu. Ubuntu is on the whole a great OS particularly for those of limited linux understanding.
