I end up usually buying both products. As far as I can tell, the Cheapbytes CDROMS are essentially the first of the Walnut Creek CDROMs. They boot the same, they load and look the same. I've been buying the Cheapbyte cdroms and loaning them out or giving them away to my Windows using friends, works great for that... :) I don't want to lose the Walnut Creek ones.
