Hey John,
I dont know if you knew this but there was a referance to www.portableapps.com in the most recent edition of Computer Shopper (May 2006 I think). As it is Britains biggest selling computer mag its sure to drive some more traffic over here. It was mentioned in a review of a U3 drive and the reviewer said that if you could get the software you wanted from www.portableapps.com then you could save yourselft a lot of money!
