Pendrivelinux - Be cool anywhere you go
The word cool takes an ever more significant meaning when you consider a Linux distribution running from a USB drive.
Pendrivelinux.com is all about carrying your favorite Linux tools in your pocket and running them on just about any machine. This powerful combination offers flexibility, security and privacy, the three probably most important components of the modern computing. Best of all, setting up Linux to boot and run off a USB is a very simple affair.
Detailed and easily understandable guides are provided on the site, covering a range of scenarios - installation from either Linux or Windows, with or without rebooting, native or emulation. The guides aim at a wide range of users, from veteran Linux geeks to hesitant Windows newbies. My goal is to help the latter group, mostly.
Windows users will probably be hard pressed to abandon their favorite operating systems and move to Linux. Indeed, dual-booting or installing Linux for the first time can be daunting - and even inadequate for people who cannot afford to experiment with brand new ideas on their one single system.
One of the solutions comes in the form of virtualization: VMware or VirtualBox, take your pick. These powerful applications offer the user an almost harmless way of running guest operating systems on top of their hosts, regardless of the environment installed. But again, this could prove a difficult task for many. The installation of the application itself followed by the installation of the guest operating system, followed by firewall and network configurations ... can be troublesome.
This is where Pendrivelinux comes in.
