Has anybody checked this out? I heard about it from Brian Ketelson  
who’s the fellow who put out LiveCD. He’s impressed with it to the  
point that he’s talking about pulling LiveCD and just pointing folks to  
this (it’s called LinRails).

If you decide to check it out, let us know you think. I thought I’d  
have O’Reilly update the “Rolling with Ruby on Rails Revisited” tutorial  
with a link to it but would like to have some feedback re: LiveCD vs.  
this first.

Thanks,  
Bill
