"Mandriva Flash is a 2GB Dane-Elec USB key loaded with Mandriva Linux 2007. It gets points for style: the key is an attractive deep blue surrounded by a sturdy metal fence that leaves room on both ends to attach the key to a lanyard or keychain. The release notes say that the operating system and related files only take up half the space on the USB drive, leaving 1GB for my own files. This little powerhouse packs a lot of punch, once you get it up and running."

You should also include Xming

Problem is, although the machine doesn't need to be rebootet, Colinux needs root (Administrator) privileges to run. There is also no sound AFAIK.
But just putting a stick into the USB port and see Linux "overtake" Windows to get a usable workstation would be just way cool :-)
