Yep, When test driving it you can’t download anything and save it, and any temporary changes you make will reset to default next time you boot it. But once it is installed the gloves are off and it is good to go.

But here is something cool Bob. You can take a 32 or 64 gig thumbdrive and set it up to be a portable linux computer that you CAN download to and save stuff just like a portable hard drive and OS. When you boot to it, it just borrows all the hardware but operates like a whole separate PC, changes, downloads, apps and all!

Yeah i knew you could save changes, then ‘reburn’ the changes to a new disk (or to thumb drive) so that it includes all the changes you made, but not too sure how to do that- never really looked into it- I shoudl though, As I’ve got a LOT of changes I’ve made to my linux install, and would liek ot burn it’s current state onto a DVD so that i don’t have to keep making changes whenever I have to reinstall for whatever reason
