Rating : - AVOID - Would Not Support
I bought Version 2.0 (2005) in anticipation of getting rid of an old PC. You put the CD in the bay, and it boots up in Linux from the CD, but it would get to an uncompress step and try to find something in my empty 3.5 diskette drive and just hang. Their only response was "we no longer support that version, but you can have 30% off our new version" Yo jerks, that sucks. Do not support this company. Looks like my drive will get the old hammer treatment.
