The new Microsoft operating system, Windows 7, not only will be sold in packages to complete the installation via a disk, but you can download from online store to removable storage units or burn it to DVD.

The idea is that even users who do not have optical drives on their computers, especially those who have a netbook, can upgrade to the new platform, running the installation directly from your USB flash drives.

“For users who do not have a DVD optical drive on their netbook, the download tool in Windows 7 for USB / DVD will get an ISO image and create an auto-run USB device, which may be used to install Windows 7,” explained Brandon Leblanc, a company spokesman.
As indicated by eWEEK magazine, this choice (only available for downloads within the U.S. for the moment), is based on the WUDT tool, which also burn the ISO to a DVD for a traditional installation.
