On a daily use basis I find it a very usable system. Open office, a browser, a mail client and some troubleshooting tools. It's quick to boot and runs well on even minimal systems, and it's not for the other features it includes. I tried a few others before settling on this one. The ubuntu usb utility was easy to use and created a nice system but I found it a little slow. Puppy on a stick is one of the better ones I found along with Knoppix.
