hello,
i have been asked by my chief in my departement (university) to create a sponsored pendrive with portable apps. the usb key will be branded with the university logo and given for free during meetings etc. maybe in future they could be sold in the university shop. He also asked to personalize the logo (icons), homepage of firefox etc with university logo etc...
Can i do this with portable apps suite? it look like gpl allow it, but i didnt understand what to do with portable apps logo: i will for sure give credits to portable apps, but can i change logos, icons and so on?

Hi there,

i have, on my USB stick, some software running simply on an exe file that i would like to add in my portable apps menu.

I cannot install them like a portable app software.

Is there a simple solution to add a shortcut to these exe file in the menu?

Not to offend anyone, but I rather tech people answer this thread only to preserve the informative value of this post. Others can benefit of this information. Thank you.

Purpose of this thread: safe usage and prevention of a USB stick's content - soft/documents - when used in Internet Coffee shops and on companies networked computers (no policy on external devices here, and admin right on the networks).

In fact it is a board question and I don't even know how to formulate it, but:

How do I get infected
How do I see when I get infected

I managed to destroy my USB drive, and someone gave me a 32 gig unit. At first I was thrilled, until I tryed copying my stuff to it....The write speed would place it last in a geriatric turtle race.

Is/are there site(s) that have comparisons of various USB drives relative to read/write speeds?

Thanks

Thom

I need a new stick. It is not much about the price, but the usability/reliability/longevity/transfer speed. It is a Buffalo USB 2, Japanese model, either 8GB, either 16GB. What do you think? I would tend to select the 16 GB.

30 MB/s data transfert / 8 GB / 4000 JPY

or

30 MB/s data transfer / 16GB / 7500 JPY

Q1: is the life span of a USB shorter than a HD?
Q2: does the size make any difference about reliability or longevity?
