Because he may have a netbook which needs an OS loading onto it...

What ISO is it? If it's Linux then use PenDrive Linux's universal USB installer
http://www.pendrivelinux.com/universal-usb-installer-easy-as-1-2-3/

If it's Windows, it would depend on what version of Windows, however I've had some success with WinToFlash http://wintoflash.com/home/en/ it cuts out the command line utilities you can use with Windows 7.

If it's a data ISO then use WinRAR to extract it to USB.

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.
