Oops I did it again ;), I should read a little bit slower ...

You're right, especially the stick I ordered is a slow one.

Intenso Rainbow-Line USB 2.0 Stick 8GB
Read 10,2 MB/sec
Write 5 MB/sec

That means

10,2 * 1024 = 104448
104448 / 150 = 69,632

Read 70x

5 * 1024 = 5120
5120 / 150 = 34,133

Write 34x

I guess good USB sticks are able to read 120x or 200x. But I guess it's
fast enough to demonstrate Non-Linux-Users a Linux without the
limitations of a Live-CD when I visit them and to have a Linux for
myself, when I'm not at home.

I hope I didn't made a mistake, another stick,

from Maxell has the specification 72x, but without the information if
it's for write and/or read. I trusted in the information of the Intenso
stick and "my mathematics" that hopefully are correct.
