Installing Vista From A USB 2.0 Drive

@ 2007/03/01
Why would someone want to install a client OS from a thumb drive instead of a DVDROM or over the network? One reason: Performance. Installing Windows Vista from a high speed USB flash drive is in my experience the easiest & fastest way to complete a Windows Vista install.

with VMWare ESX you can set a server up in less than 5 minutes
