PortableApps Suite Editor's Review
A portable app is a computer program that you can carry around with you on a portable device and use on any Windows computer. 'PortableApps' is a suite of programs bundled into a single setup kit and designed to be run from a removable device such as a USB Flash stick, for example. This suite is skillfully designed to include a list of applications needed by the most of us. The installation package comes in three versions: Platform (1.8 Mb), Suite Lite (47.3 Mb) and Suite Standard (139.9 Mb). The suite contains development tools (Nvu Portable & KompoZer Portable, XAMPP), games (sudoku portable), Graphics tools (GIMP Portable), Internet browsers and tools (FileZilla, Miranda IM, Mozilla firefox and Thunderbird, etc.), Music&Video tools (Audacity portable, VLC Media Player Portable), Office tools (AbiWord, OpenOffice.org, Sumatra PDF, etc.), Mac-on-Stick operating system and some utilities (7-Zip, CalmWin Portable, etc.). In all, there are 72 portable applications which can be run from a removable drive. Pluses: The main advantage of using 'Portable Apps' is the thing that you can go 100% mobile and secure your privacy. If you open end edit documents using portable applications or browse the Internet using portable application, there will be no traces left on the computer where you plugged your USB Flash device. Another good thing is that your Windows registry remains unchanged, no matter how many application you install or uninstall. It's all going on on your removable device. Drawbacks / flaws: In conclusion: This suite is open source which means that you can download and use it for as long as you want to without restrictions. An excellent idea, in my opinion! version reviewed: 1.6
