From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I don't like that it doesn't give you a live image by default. It's kind of hard to find them on the website.
I think my ideal installer would be one that boots into a desktop and by default installs that and copies everything you've done there onto the installed system. Like "here you can start using your system right away, we'll ask you a few questions and then do the pesky installation stuff for you in the background".
