| Local firm comes up with 'safe PC' |
|---|
The concept of a computer running from a read-only device has been around for a long time. Several Linux distributions - Slackware, DemoLinux, Knoppix and Mepis - have their own live CDs which can be used to either have a look at what is on offer or for use by sysadmins when a computer fails to boot off its hard drive.
Melbourne firm Cybersource has taken the idea of a read-only device to its logical conclusion and come up with what it calls a Safe Internet Computer, one that runs off a CD and is immune to worms, spyware and all the other filth that inhabits the internet these days.
