Lou,
I personally like to use a 4 GB stick when I install additional programs on the stick to make it a 'live-production' drive. That allows some space to keep documents and other data on the drive.
I typically use 2 GB sticks for regular live disk distributions such as ubuntu, mint, and others. I mostly use these to install the distribution on my machine. I never use a 1 GB stick as a 'live drive', but you probably could.

Why 4GB, isn't a 1GB stick big enough?

Gary,
Click on the 'Diskimage' radio button. In the area next to the ISO selection box, click on the '...' area to browse to where you saved the disk image. Make sure you have at least a 4 GB USB drive plugged in, and press 'OK'. UNetbootin should start copying the image to the USB drive. When it is finished, reboot. Enjoy linux and Chirp!

My favorite for burning CD images in Windows is ImgBurn
(http://www.imgburn.com/). It is very reliable and free. Another thing you can do is 'burn' the image to a USB flash drive using UNetbootin (http://unetbootin.sourceforge.net/). That's what I did.

I downloaded the file to my Windows desktop, then sent it to a CD. Both of my computers are set to boot CD then HD, but Windows still starts up. I've done something wrong.
It's an image of a CD, which means you need to burn it to the CD as an image, not just as a file on the CD. I'm sure googling "burn image to cd in windows" will turn up something useful. I imagine Windows 7 has a way to do this built-in. Both Linux and MacOS have had this point-and-click behavior integrated for years, without add-on software.
