“There’s a shop in the vicinity of the place where I’m writing
this article where you can buy 16 GB USB memory without any hassle
(the memory is also called: PenDrive, USB Flash Drive, Flash Disk,
FlashDrive, Finger Disk, Massive Storage Device, Flash Memory Stick

pleasure has its price, but it’s futile to drop it here as it
changes quicker than a dame’s temper. And as the joy of having the
toy demands a rather high expenditure so far, buying a 1 GB stick
does not represent a financial burden even for the people without
permanent employment, e.g. proverbial “poor students.” Such a stick
is more than enough for a light Linux distro leaving a lot of space
for other data…”
