We've launched an exciting new project of our own! Introducing the Kickstarter app for iPhone!

Funded! This project successfully raised its funding goal on December 18, 2011.

POP Flash Driver are in.

Update #7 · Jan 3, 2012 · 6 comments

I have just received the Custom Flash Drives I've ordered.
If you are one of the backers that is to receive a Flash Drive as a reward you can see what they look like below.  I originally was going to order 1GB Drives, but I did a little haggling and got 2GB Drives for the same price.  Now I just need to design the software package that I'm going to through on them and use 'dd' to get them all ready.

It will still be a little while until you receive these in the mail.  I'm still waiting on the other rewards to come in so I can ship them out.

      +1 for Mint, it seems to be more functional out of the box than Ubuntu to me :-)

      Why is the sky blue. There are hundreds of distros and everyone thinks theirs is the best. And depending on what you are doing, there is a distro that might be better for that over another.

      I really don't want to get into a debate over distros. But, I prefer Mint. Why would you think that "Mint is notably less secure and also less stable"? If we want to get into security and stability, I would put Debian stable on there. Distro choice is up to the end user. They can easily delete and install what ever distro they want or or none at all.

      Why Mint over Ubuntu? (Mint is notably less secure and also less stable due to only two developers)

      I'm thinking of doing a custom version of Linux Mint with a POP Theme as well as Slitaz for older machines. So, it will be a dual boot (or maybe more).

      I also plan on putting other portable tools on there. Of course the user can delete or format the drive however they see fit. I will also post an IMG file online so that everyone can clone the drive to any drive they want.

      Very cool. What distro have you decided on?
