most commonly used Linux version?

[Haworth, Michael A.]

LiveCD's are great for testing out a Distro to get a feel for it without actually installing it on your system - I used several of these for months while getting my feet wet with Linux. LiveCD's boot into RAM and SWAP space on your computer so as not to interfere with the entrenched 'operating system' on your computer. Most LiveCD's will also have a method for installing to your hard drive (either alongside Windows/OS X or completely removing said OS's and installing itself).

I know that Ubuntu, Fedora, Knoppix, Puppy, openSuSe and a LOT of other distro's have LiveCD's available (I prefer Fedora 14 right now, but Ubuntu 10.04 is a great starting point for a beginner).

Standard disclaimer is that this is only my opinion and does not reflect what others think - Enjoy Linux - it is worth the time and effort to learn. If you have any questions or need help, feel free to come to a KCLUG meeting and start asking - there are plenty of people with volumes of knowledge...

Can anyone tell me what's difference between LiveCD and non-LiveCD?
I just downloaded LiveCD for CentOS and uploaded, it worked without any key stroke.

However, I can't even take out DVD.

where can I download the normal DVD version?
