My little 256MB stick can't be that usefull here huh?  Oh well . . I rarely use strange PCs . . so no real loss.

Good info though Hankers!

Thanks for you answer. I have a 128,256,1gb,2gb, and a 8gb. Nice idea but I don't use any of those apps.

many App markers are now offering portable versions...as it becomes more popular.. i expect more t follow suit... even OBJD would be great as it would be nice to run WB from a thumb..

Just amazing... I was looking for some way to run programs without an install on another computer!

AlMonty . .if your looking to give me a stocking stuffer out of your surpluse jsut PM me so I can get you the right potsal code. 

Thats weird- I just installed this on one of my usb sticks a couple of days ago...

Great apps!

so i can find this post later

thanks 4 the info

While I realize there are quite a few U3-haters out there, some of us find the U3 interface useful. For those who do, the Xtraveller software (found here) is an easy way to run PortableApps from a U3-enabled drive.

I agree with warreni, my 2gb stick came with U3, I find it useful (has some nice free apps and features).

However, I installed PortableApps a long time ago, and I love it. It has many nice free programs and a nice interface.

Along with Xtraveller as mentioned by warreni above, PStart is another free non-U3 apps launcher that will launch PortableApps for you (on U3 enabled drives), I use them both. I have noticed that Xtraveller will autolaunch PortableApps when you launch Xtraveller, I have not been able to do that with PStart. You can find PStart here:

Some of you might find MojoPac an interesting option. You can find it here:

No problem Z. I'm not using the 2gig. PM me with an address and I'll stick it in an envelope.  


surpluse = surplus
jsut = just
potsal = postal   

At least you know it's really me. 

 

I know exactly what to do with that memory stick. And yes, it will fit...

This really bothers me. All the sticks I find lying around don't seem to have any memory. I'd throw them and the dog would have to bring it back, some memory!  

I hear that in Australia there's a stick that you can throw as hard as you can and it remembers where you were and comes back to you. Now that's a memory stick!
