The free clone of Red Hat Enterprise Linux has released a Live CD distribution.

The free CentOS Linux distribution has released Live CD images of the 6.0 release that is based on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.0.

It also includes the Gnome desktop environment with Firefox, Thunderbird, Gimp, Gthumb and Pidgin, but some other applications are missing.
