    Anyone use this? Is it suitable for day to day use, or should you just run it off a USB? How about a virtual machine in Ubuntu?

    it pretty much is just cut down ubuntu with a bunch of tools preconfigured.

    you can potentially use it day-to-day but there's not really any benefit to it unless your job is peen testing or something

    it'll work fine in a VM, you'll probably need to give the VM direct hardware access to the wlan card if you plan on doing any cracking there. and for cracking/hashing you'll probably want to do that outside of the VM for performance's sake

    You might run into a bunch of annoyance.

    Personally use VMs due to the snapshot feature, allows me to save the base desktop and revert after a project without reinstalling the whole VM.
    Once you get in a habit of maintaining snapshots, its just soooo much easier.

    OK. Do you just use VirtualBox?
