General Discussion

Hey Everybody!

Longtime forum lurker and portable apps user, but first time poster here. I am just getting into CVS for the first time through a new CVS repository on mozdev I created for my new Sunbird/Lightning extension. Because I am in my undergrad, I typically program on at least ten different computers in various locations around campus, at work, and at home. I have hence been trying to find a way to get a CVS client up and running on my portable hard drive so that I may access my files and website on mozdev from anywhere.

I just did a search on sf.net for "portable" and our main page came up on page 3 after things like GAIM portable and other old projects now merged into the one.
Is there anything one can do about that becaue I think it sucks.

Is there a Portable Spreadsheet except OpenOffice Calc?

Hi, first time poster, however I'm a pretty long time user of portableapps. I was wondering if the apps can be executed from an SDHC card on a PDA, such as the iPaq 3835 which I own. I believe it is a windows based os, but still who knows if it'd work. I'd like to get some firefox/thunderbird running on it, and for my portable devices this has always been my first place to look. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Is there a plug-in for pidgin or miranda im that can detect who are invisible?I only use Yahoo Messenger.

If non then is there an accurate website?

(I know there are many discussions about this)

I read an old guide on how to convert FAT or FAT32 into NTFS. (http://www.computerfreetips.com/System_Tune-Up/convert_fat_ntfs.html)

Now what I'm afraid is that it is written there

"Now restart your computer and enjoy NTFS features, but keep in mind you cannot covert back it to FAT or FAT32 again."

So is it true?

And before i convert my Flash Drive into NTFS what are the real advantages of NTFS over FAT/FAT32? We have very many FAT32 flash drives that went corrupt because we forgot to use the safely remove.

Which is better?

Good usb
with
-big size
-affordable price
-fast

and what store can i find the best deals on usb?

Is there a difference in speed between the portableapp and the .exe file that you install in your computer? And is it smaller in size compared to the .exe file? Do you remove or sacrifice function?

Advantages of having the PortableApps aplication installed?

Just curious. If there is no real advantage then I will remove it for the sake of space(even if it is small)
