Keep at it. 3.4 has some real cool stuff including a 2.6 kernel, Captive NTFS
filesystem driver, and an updated OpenOffice.

Kery cool. Now it gets even better. There's a tool called knoppix-customize
that you can run against your image before you burn it. With this tool you
can append options such as your screen resolution, home=scan, myconfig=scan,
, your boot background image and the like. Then the CD will incorporate
whatever changes you make.

If you think that your printing and samba is cool, wait until you don't have
to type anything addtional to get it.

Another cool things about 3.4 is that you can actually install some 
applications and make them available.
