That is pretty slick. I recently picked up a drive enclosure which does something similar. It is a Zalman VE200 and it will allow you to choose which ISO is loaded into the cdrom emulator (via a hardware rocker switch). It is a usb or esata device and the emulated cd/dvd shows up as a device and is bootable. A pretty slick device but not as 'convenient' as a usb stick that takes care of the bootloader/choice issue. -- Sean (mobile) On 2011-07-29, at 11:22 AM, "Adam Thompson" <athompso@athompso.net> wrote:

The concept is definitely viable, since Sandisk did something very similar in their Cruzer line of products, except you can’t update the contents of the fake CD-ROM drive yourself on a Cruzer.
I’m buying one!
