14 DAY TRIAL // GoblinX is a Live CD based on the Slackware distribution. GoblinX Live CD is directed towards those users who appreciate quality applications and a workspace that is both practical and beautiful; it contains some of the most used and praised applications for Linux.
GoblinX is a completely operational Linux system contained on one CD and it runs from any CD-ROM drive, without requiring any installation, since it was created using Linux live scripts.
Advantages of GoblinX LiveCD:
