Does anyone have a Nero Image of this? Is there even still a Linux program available for the DC? I would like to try it out, just to see if it's decent.

My DC came with Linux I think. I never really got it to work, but that was before I had ever used Linux before. What purpose could it serve anyway?

It doesn't really serve a functional purpose unless you are an expert linux user. Even then it isn't all that practical. At the moment it is more of a novelty item, where you boot up linux and go "Oh look, its linux". But then that is pretty much it.

I would just save the CD for something else.
