Sometime last year. I downloaded it from the Ubuntu site. Used the recommended program to put it on the stick. It had me make a partition. Asked me what file system I wanted to use. When I tried to move to the next phase I got the warning that I hadn't made a home partition. I was surprised at the lack of defaults or suggested settings since it's reported to be the EZLinux.

Once installed, everything worked. Video. Audio. Internet. Then it started stuttering and ended up refusing to boot. I put the poor thing out of my misery and wiped the stick.
