something like lycoris looked easy, but they only have a 45 day trial. which i'm sure is long enough, but i'd rather not have a limit in my usage time.
then you can try knoppix! (http://www.knoppix.org/)
KNOPPIX is a bootable CD with a collection of
GNU/Linux software,
automatic hardware detection, and support for many graphics cards, sound cards, SCSI and USB devices and other peripherals.
KNOPPIX can be used as a Linux demo, educational CD, rescue system, or adapted and used as a platform for commercial software product demos.
It is not necessary to install anything on a hard disk. Due to on-the-fly decompression, the CD can have up to 2 GB of executable software installed on it.
no time limit! linux is
free, free as in freedom
