Wanted: a mini live CD distro for AMD64

A reader wonders why, until now, there has been no effort to build a mini live CD distribution for AMD64:

"The advent and growing popularity of AMD64 systems has heralded many 64-bit Linux distros. However, to date, there does not exist a mini live CD distro for 64-bit Linux. I am referring to business-card bootable live CDs such as Damn Small Linux, Feather Linux, and Puppy Linux which function as useful operating desktop systems and not just as recovery CDs. Would anyone be interested in creating a 64-bit mini live CD distro? Is there currently enough demand that would justify the creation of these things? Either way, I hope to create some discussion on DW to kick-start the issue."


This is posted in the newest Distrowatch Weekly. I'm not quite worried about this issue right now, but I thought I'd just bring this into attention.
