[NTLUG:Discuss] USB Flash drive recommendations?

[Randall Weyers]

I have to say that corsair is very good But I do not use the corsair.
I have LG that are now 2 and 5 years old respectivly  and Never have had an 
issue with it.
I had a 1 gb that went bad after 5 years and they replaced it quickly  with 
a new one
they feature
no added applications
they are both LG sliders no cap to loose
I have worn the paint off them
They still serve well in fact one of them is my install Key for ubuntu
