Original description

I think it is a good idea to put a memory chip on the arduino board.

This way you can take your arduino everywhere without an extra usb memory
stick, because you can store you're projectfiles ON the arduino. The good
thing about the arduino is that it doesn't require installation, only
download of the arduino software and installation of the driver. This way
you only need te arduino itself and install the driver FROM the arduino!

By using a usb hub chip that sends data to the USB-serial converter chip
AND the memmory chip I believe there would be no compatibility issues.
