They are meant for special cases like Live CD or Live USB envornments.Main reason is that you cannot practically use a system with 100% compressed HDD. FOr example, if you have a 40GB HDD compressed to hold 80GB, then yo must have AT LEAST 80GB free memory to expand that HDD. Otherwise you're gonna crash your system. The Live CDs uses a special technique where only wanted programs are extracted in to memory but that can only be used if at the end of the day, the amount of data that is compressed remains the same.  That's why live CDs cannot store new data or even changes you do over reboots.</blockquote>
