Ubuntu on a USB Stick - Initial Impressions

Installation was painless and I'm now running Ubuntu 10.0.4 Netbook on my Acer Aspire One from a 2GB USB stick. I'm typing this on Firefox. Things worked well from the start. The system detected my WiFi and made the connection. Haven't tried much else, but I'm working to find things out. One thing I see is that The time is wrong. Probably didn't set up things correctly Looks like it's GMT.
