Hey,

I've been drawing out comics of the user stories [1] we discussed at FUDcon.

p.s., here's the comic: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Image:Spins-userstories-joetheartist.png

I came up with one idea. I think downloading an ISO image for a lot of inexperienced users, especially if they are not using Fedora or another Linux, is going to be confusing. I don't think OS X and Windows know how to handle ISO files nor do they usually come with software that can handle them by default (correct me if I'm wrong!)

One idea I had, I don't know how possible it is but...

For each spin, where appropriate, could we offer:

- One Live USB stick download that includes the ISO *AND* the software appropriate for their OS bundled together to create the USB stick. Ideally it would be a binary they could click, would ask them to select their USB key from a list of mounted drives and would just do it.

Is this technically feasible?
