ignorant viewer (thats me) question. in what situation is this useful?

[ti83programmer]

@roberto366 Suppose you are in a situation where you have the calculator but no properly-formatted USB stick and you need/want to get into a computer. For example, a classroom where laptops, cell phones, USB storage, etc. are banned. You could get into that computer's administrator account and mess around, and no one would suspect you used a calculator to do it. Or perhaps you just don't have a properly-formatted USB flash drive laying around and you need to use this boot disc.

@roberto366 Actually the usefulness doesn't matter as much as the coolness of this (the fact an actual calculator achieve this) :P
