    I'm not a big fan of canonical but they did just get rid of unity so that is good at least.

    I have Ubuntu studio set up on my main HDD, but I wanted a live distro on a flash drive for turking so I can do it on other computers, and Puppy is the smallest I could find.

    Ubuntu Mate is under 2GB and linux mint would likely work as well

    Mint runs the same DE as mate by default I think.

    I'll give you the same advice I give my other unmarried friends.

    If you are cool with it happening to you, then go get it. Just know that you have to turn in your right to Grinch if you ever get cheated on.

    So if you want an easy, non microsoft driven OS, then Ubuntu is your thing. If you want to run something a little more...standard linux, check out @ChrisTurk's Linux Mint suggestion. It's a good mix of easy to use/hand holding with some of the Ubuntu crazy muted ;)

    Yeah and now that Ubuntu dropped unity it at least runs a decent DE by default.
