Both the site and the open source tool that's available at this site are excellent. The site is well organized and the tool is amazing! Okay, I'm repeating myself.. but I really am excited about this tool.
It lets you EASILY set up a linux distribution to boot from a USB thumb drive... (if anyone reading this has tried to manually set up a linux distribution to boot from a USB drive before, then you know why I'm excited about this tool - makes it exponentially easier to accomplish).
A really nice bonus is that you can run the linux distribution directly from within windows. No need to reboot - it comes with Oracle's Virtual Box which lets you run it parallel with Windows.
Definitely worth checking out.

Michael B. As an addendum - one problem I did run into (after posting my original review) is with running the "Parted Magic" linux distribution in the virtual box deal. It keeps crashing after it begins attempting to boot the kernel for Linux. Works fine for booting from it though.
