Quantian -- Knoppix remastered. One of the pet projects I had in mind in my "free time," was to remaster the Knoppix Linux Live CD to include Linux software that a scientist would deem useful. Well, the Quantian distribution has done just that. A live Linux CD is a good piece of software to have in your backpack anyway -- you can use it as a rescue CD or use it to compile your LaTeX document -- all without needing to install a whole new OS on your hard drive.
