EDU-Nix is a Live CD, this means that it is a complete computer Operating System that runs off of a Compact Disc instead of being installed onto the computer's hard drive. EDU-Nix is based upon Gentoo Linux and the K Desktop Environment.

EDU-Nix Live CD also contains installation programs for OpenOffice.org for Windows, a fully-featured Office Productivity Suite that is Free to use and redistribute.

EDU-Nix contains numerous Educational, Office Productivity and Internet programs within a portable, Live CD Environment. You can access the EDU-Nix desktop on any PC that can boot from CD, bringing your system with you wherever you go.
EDU-Nix is Free Software, meaning school districts may legally copy and redistribute the system to students and faculty.

EDU-Nix aims to provide U.S. Public Schools with Open-Source alternatives to expensive proprietary software products. The project will consist initially of a redistributable CD that has both a live CD environment, as well as Windows versions of the office and productivity programs.

By ensuring that all students and faculty have equal access to high-quality Free Software, EDU-Nix will help to bridge the digital divide in American schools, allowing students access to the same software they use at school wherever they can get computer time.
