Although BackTrack was my #1 in the past, nowadays they do not include
anymore Nessus (since Nessus' developers changed the license) and, IMHO,
the distro lost a lot of its "attractiveness" (yes, ok, you can download
it but...where is my "out-of-the-box" arsenal, especially if you need a
live version?). Despite this, it is still #1 for forensics and
wi-fi/bluetooth scanning.
