[dyne:bolic] GNU/Linux based live bootable CD-RW - a multimedia studio out of the box

DyneBolic is a really cool Blasting live bootable CD-ROM, this means is a neat disk you put in your cd reader and reboot the machine, having a complete operative system recognizing your sound, video, TV and network cards and running only with Free Software. DyneBolic works without the need of harddisks, you need just some low profile requirements (see below) and you'll get back True Love

This distribution is an effort to give everyone the possibility to discover how GNU/Linux and free software taste better than any other operative system

and here they come cheerful images of what we are talking about:
