Possible to run vbulletin off a cd?

Hm, good point.

Thinking further, you could run the server side apps (apache, mysql) off of the CD, and use a USB memory stick for the database, vB files, etc. It'd be a bit of a chore to setup, but I think as long as everything stayed pointing at /dev/memorystick (or whatever) it could be doable.
