Hi, Christmas is coming up, and i'm getting the treat of a new flash drive.
Now, I've been using a 2GB PNY Attache, works nice, sometimes I got apps that I put on my iPod 80GB

Ok, now, I don't always carry my iPod cord with me, and it does get filled (no not THAT much music, I do movies, cause I like watching Christmas Vacation on my 1 hour school bus ride) and, well I'm running out of space on the 2GB, I like to maintain enough space considering I go to a trade school, and i'm part of Information Technology.

Hello,
I just wanted to send my appreciation for the portable apps platform. I've been using it with USB devices for years, It is the perfect way to work on personal items at work without using the software. It's good to have all of this contained to the USB. Lately I have found a new use for Portable Apps.

hi! i just wanted to suggest or request to the site administrator of portableapps.com: Can you put some label: something like "new", "updated",or "latest version" with regards to the list of applications in this page https://portableapps.com/apps ?

Hi everyone,

I'm new to portable applications. As far as I know, portable applications can run from an external usb drive, and they do not need to be installed. Does this mean using them can keep Windows clean and fast?

The GM CIO said he's also interested in exploring other emerging IT approaches, including what is sometimes called a "PC on a stick" -- a USB drive that is loaded with the user's desktop. The drive can recreate that desktop on multiple machines.

The "PC on a stick" technology can "enable my home PC to do everything that I want to do at GM," said Kline. The drive is encrypted, so a misplaced drive would result simply in the loss of a $15 device, he said. "It's something I'm pushing really hard with my technology guys - that's got my eye," he said.

hi all,

does anybody know an app that can sync my outlook at work (some kinda of MS activesyn) with my new smart phone. they blocked all software installment and activesync is not allowed to because of security(?!) resaons.

I read somewhere that active sync is not possible to make portable but is there other software that can do the same?

tx!

Is there an easy way to test whether a program is compliant with the PAF standards of portability?

I am one (of many) who does what John T. opposes, running portable software on my hard drive. Strictly because of ease of backup/reinstall. My recent upgrade to Win7 went incredibly easily because of use of a separate program partition and use of portable software.
