Come to think of it, that's a good point - and even relevant to Linux advocacy. I don't think I've ever seen a live CD for either Windows or MacOS (well, the install DVD sort of is, but...). And I sure as heck don't think you can get Windows or MacOS to run off a USB stick. On the other hand, I CAN carry a full copy of Linux (or BSD) on my keyring - for some applications that's kind of useful.
