The Ramdisk option eliminates the need for two CD drives in most situations (not a good idea for low-memory systems), and I've seen others use this kind of setup in tandem with a USB key drive for storage.

I've read a little about how custom LiveCDs can be built with

would work to use a LiveCD as my only workstation.  Are LiveCDs ready
to be used in this way?  I really like the idea of being able to walk
up to any computer, pop in a CD, reboot, and be working on my system.
What do you guys think about this?

I guess this would require two CD drives in order to access another CD
from the OS?
