Are these sticks sold with a warning label? "May make it impossible to 
use your PC in a normal manner." 

I guess it is a tribute to good marketing (or poor management) that 
companies are willing to pay a 5% royalty to make their products less 
desirable. 

Looks to me that U3 fits a special need. It should be sold as an add-on 
or the stick should come with an installer for those who want it. 

U3 works too much like those "opt out" mailing lists we are all 
"subscribed" to.
