    I hope you realize how much more expensive USB mass storage devices have become in the last three months.

      A Debian live image fits into 4GB flash drive. If you search stuff for sale you can probably find them cheap, and 4GB is practically the smallest size you can buy.

      But distros are comparably tiny. So you can use up all those ancient sticks with a few GB you got as advertising that are collecting dust in some corner of a drawer for years. Sometimes they are even actually tiny when you free them from their tacky masot- or logo-shaped exterior.
