Everyone knows about the basics, he should have done specialized distros. I recently found that BackTrack 3 is very good.

I found this a nice overview. Herring: maybe you could cover some more detailed underground distros, I'd be interested in reading about that. Just for the record I mainly use Umbuntu because its so nice and plain simple.

That's the thing, specialized distros are hard to know about. I did a bit of googling & came across this

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Linux_LiveDistros

I only know (& like) 4 from that list, plus Arch linux which is very good on old computers.
