abstract:A live CD, live DVD, or live disc is a complete bootable computer operating system which runs in the computer's memory, rather than loading from the hard disk drive. It allows users to experience and evaluate an operating system without installing it or making any changes to the existing operating system on the computer.
You'll be able to watch a live special on your favorite rock group (or string quartet), download its CD for a fee, find out when and where it's performing next, zero in on a seating plan and buy a ticket.
