In my opinion, the simpler the feedback, the wider the cross-section<br>
of users will be from a technically-adept point of view. By that I<br>
mean we will garner feedback (valuable I think) from non computer<br>
whizzes. I'm more worried about them. Simplicity of use is I think<br>
vital to SoaS success.<br>

I fear that many users will encounter difficulties 1) loading a USB<br>
stick, 2) setting BIOS to boot from it.<br>
<br>
</blockquote><div><br>As for #2, I've tried to rearrange the instructions so that a naive user is encouraged to create a boot-helper CD and use that and the USB for the first experience as I think that will have a much better first time success rate. It would be great if people looked over what I've done and improve on it.<br>
