Why LTSP?

That is a good question. There is no inherent need to run LTSP specifically. The goal is just to try to find a use for all of these machines which are underpowered by the standards of todays software.

With people throwing away USB drives and compact flash and DVD readers so pathetically cheap, a LiveCD system is both more robust and more reliable than an LTSP system. It also doesn't require a hard drive.

Unfortunately the kind of hardware people donate for free can't really run a LiveCD worth crap. And even if you do run a LiveCD you generally cannot save your work. You could use a USB drive for something like that but now we are getting more complicated.
