I've installed Linux on a LOT of netbooks now, and an external USB cd rom 
drive is wonderful.  We played with installing from a USB stick, but it was 
hit and miss as to whether it would work.

Pricegrabber show an HP for $32.63.

In a pinch Jason, you could swing by my office sometime and do an install 
with my external drive.
