+1.

+1 more if you include firefox and the other killer open source apps for win32
which can be made to run from cd (no local installation).

+1 more if a livecd builder is one more of those apps (pie in sky).

(to head off stupid comments, of course this should be an optional feature for
kadischi users, as it will eat up plenty of iso real estate)
