It's a "LiveCD" which means you boot from it and run it from CD.

Yep, Linux can mount just about any image -- floppy, CD, hard drive,
etc... as if it was a real, physical device.

Most LiveCDs are Debian-based.  They typically aren't for installing
(even if they allow you to install to hard drive).

Community software is all about choice, choice of technology.
Unfortunately, too many Linux advocates port over the so-called
"choice" from the commercial software world, brand name marketing.
The result is false assumptions, failure to focus on the real
technical similarities, but loyalty to blind vendor alignments.
