I ordered something from someone awhile back and it came with a free flash drive in the shape of a credit card. It had pictures of puppies on it so naturally it's a puppy linux drive now.

This is entirely irrelevant but hopefully someone gets a smile out of it.

Thin, credit-card-sized USB drives are a popular promotional gimmick because they have a practical use but also have a large surface area for promoting your brand. Most often given out as vendor gifts.

If you donate to the FSF, you get a member card with pre-installed Linux.
