| |
| | | |
− | The download is a CD-ROM disc image .iso file (380 MiB), which could be burned to a blank CD, and booted as a [[wikipedia:Live CD|Live CD]] to demonstrate Sugar (while no work or changes will be saved after shutdown). When the image is loaded to a USB storage device, it can be used to boot a computer into the Sugar environment and save one's work on the USB key without touching the computer's hard disc.
