For those who don't know, you don't run OS's off a CD-ROM. The CD-ROM is
only for installation purposes - it's like a tape, but cheaper to produce.
One reason WHY you don't is that a CD-ROM is WAY to slow.

Check the availability of GNU software, especially GCC/G++ on the PC and Mac
platforms. Under Linux, YES, under DOS, NOT REALLY.
