I needed a way to install Linux quickly and easily on a USB drive and make it bootable. I found this software which makes it really easy you just choose the distro, pick what drive you want to install it into and let it rip. This makes testing Linux even easier then using live CD’s. You can also choose which distro you would like to install or you can choose your own ISO image to install.

I have been looking for this since I started playing with Linux a long time ago. This way you do not have to reboot your machine to run Linux and you can run it natively in Windows. This allows you to run your favorite Linux applications inside Windows without rebooting and it just shows up like a windows application.
Sure you can go the virtual machine route, but that is a huge pain in the butt and can take a long time to setup. This makes it so that Ubuntu runs totally separately from Windows so you can install applications and take it with you and put it in another computer with all your favorite applications ready for you to use. This is hugely helpful for things that need X-windows or any terminal output as Linux does a better job. Lifehacker has a full writeup on the application check it out to read the full article.

Ahh finally something that works cross platform and works better than iTunes.
