Changes

There are a few minor downsides to using the Live CD. The first is that performamce will be slow. This is because Ubuntu needs to load software from the CD drive which is orders of magnitude slower than a hard disk drive. Secondly because the CD is a read-only medium you will not be able to create any new files or save any changes you may make to the system. One advantage of this is that you also can't break anything, so feel free to experiment as much as you like.
