Morphix provides CD images that you can burn to a CD which can be used as a live CD. You can also choose which sets of programs you want loaded. example: command line only, simple X, KDE, Gnome, etc... I think there's 6 total.

Also, I recently got a Slackware live CD with the latest issue of Linux Format Magazine (UK based, but can be purchased in the USA). It's on the DVD that is included with the mag, but they also have CD's and I believe the slackware live cd can be found on the cd's as well. The DVD also has a copy of America's Army: Operations for linux. I installed it a few days ago and it works great. :)
