I agree that 8 and 16 GB USB 2.0 drives are the current cheap commodity
items in single unit quantities available "at retailers everywhere".
This was what I was talking about when I said "a cheap USB drive" "with
enough code to bootstrap a system that can connect to the network and
download the installer":
10 for $25.70 +tax +shipping. Enough room for Damn Small Linux, Debian
mini.iso, etc., and cheap enough that you can pass them out at an
installfest, LUG meeting, presentation, course, etc.. :-)
