For those who have limited kit and or knowledge but who would find it 
useful to test their sites using Linux from time to time. Knoppix [0]  
is a Linux distribution that runs from CD so there is no need to install 
anything. Simply download and burn the ISO image insert it into the CD 
of your windows machine and reboot, Knoppix will boot from the CD drive. 
It has excellent hardware detection and on the vast majority of machines 
it will just boot up and configure itself. Once it is running you have a 
full featured Linux system with Mozilla and Konquerer browsers to test 
your site in.
