Knoppix has more apps than Ubuntu

Knoppix has so many things to choose from. Multiple text editors, both in the KDE GUI and in terminal windows. A bunch of browsers, including Firefox, and Konquerer.

There aren't so many choices in Ubuntu, although I expect everything you need is available for free download.

One thing: I couldn't get Knoppix to recognize my thumb drive, but I can get to it easily in Ubuntu to save my work when booting off the CD.

Neither version of Linux has Abisoft, an open-source word processor I've been wanting to try, although Ubuntu says somewhere that it includes it. Maybe it's in 6.1.0. I'm running 6.0.6.

Another thing, I was able to up the screen resolution, and Ubuntu looks even better at 1280 by 1024.
