It provides you with the ability to ssh if you need to, provides youw ith links for a web browser, an irc client, and a couple of other things that you may need. What I also like about this is that I can boot the cd on a machine, set the root password, and start ssh. From there, I can  ssh into the box I just booted, and do the install remotely if I choose.
