Portable applications

Too cool. Can't vouch for this personally but every reason to believe functionality is 'as advertised'. Thanks to member Dark Samurai {Loud} at the Whirlpool discussion forums (iiNet) for his posting and recommendation. Advantages: portability (all fits on any of the tiny flash drives with loads of space left over for data), privacy (minimal footprint) and cost (none).
