I am collecting various Usage of Live CD for my study.

Till now my research has listed following ways

* Banks Providing Live CD with Browser Homepaged to Bank Website.
* Internet Cafe's operating on Live CD,
* To Setup Diskless dumb terminals / Thin clients booting on Live Disk for cheap workstation alternative. LTSP will be a good alternative
* Ethical Hacking, penetration testing.
* Un-Ethical Hacking or Cracking.
* Disaster Recovery.
* Forensic evidence collection.
* Testing any Distro before switching to it.
* OS on the RUN (when using Live USB mode)(or custom build)
* Portable Electronic Workbench. <- Preinstalled toolkit for electronics development.
* Portable Testing Workbench. <- complete with software testing tools installed
* Portable WebServer with demo (for web development organizations.) (Browser opening and showing the webpages)

I am thinking of collection all the usage that i can so this is the message to Linux Questions community, please provide your suggestion.

Note : same post has been published by me in 2-3 other forums also in order to coverup as much large user base as i can.

eagarly waiting for response.

VPN
Remote administration.
Testing a virtual machine.
Trying out another architecture on a virtual machine.

Disk imaging (creation and applying).
Backing up/archiving files, prior to OS reinstallation or for any reason.
Virus scanning and removal.
Resetting passwords on various OSes.
Migrating an OS installation from one machine to another (usually works on Linux, probably not on Windows).
Fixing broken settings.

Ohk so those are some new Usage.

OS Migration or mass setup / replication of system in corporate or other large scale setup .... that's a cool usage.
