Hey, guys, I am Rex.

I am wondering if you guys have the expeirence of running apps off a USB drive. I am recently trying to figure out it but failed. Because it seems that you can not make MS office portable and run it off a USB drive.

So I want you ideas about it. Thanks.

Google is your friend!!!!! running apps off of USB keys is pretty easy. Expecially if they are designed for it. I would google running apps or whatever exactly you are trying to do.

The only site I use for portable apps, and I run as many as I can...

PortableApps.com - Portable software for USB drives

MS Office isn't portable (very easily), but OpenOffice (Writer) is, and it is at least as good. Better IMHO when it comes to changing between formats.
