Linux on Stick?

Submitted by Azrael on May 17, 2009 - 5:32am

Why isnt there a portable Linux in your app db? I mean Linux is most suited for this job and there are already masses of way to bring it on stick.
do you intent to create some Linux section?
also a menu that runs native under Linux would be quiet good

alternative to XAMPP

Submitted by Atlan on May 16, 2009 - 9:02pm

There is a good alternative to XAMPP. It is called MoWes Portable. I use it for simple website creation/testing.
What I like about MoWes? It takes less space in my usb-drive and I belief it starts faster.

Could you put it on the list of the applications?

Thanks

Start.PortableApps Search Plugin for Firefox(Portable)

Submitted by Augi on May 15, 2009 - 2:53am

I understand why PA can't have FFP use start.portableapps.com as the default homepage. However, could PA have a FF search plugin within FFP? Instead of that nice little G that does most of our searching for us, why not a redirect through Start? I cannot find the page specifically, however, I recall a thread that said PA receives money from Google for every search performed through the PA Start.

Is this true? Is this legal? Might we be able to make this side some more moolah? Will the dynamic duo avert dastardly danger?

PyS60 Emulator Needed

Submitted by yeeping50 on May 15, 2009 - 1:46am

Dear Portable Apps,

Can anyone make a Portable PyS60 Emulator which simulate a Nokia high end phone enviornment cause I can't affort to buy one. My work place's computer also doesn't allow me to install the Emulator permenently. I was thinking maybe I can put it in a pen drive and allow me to write a Mobile Python Apps while on the go. Many thanks.

The below link will bring you to the PyS60 site. Look under topic "Emulator Installation" and try to make it portable. Thanks in advance.
