But the key is that everything I need is always with me all the time no matter where I am and what computer I use. And yes, running programs off of a USB drive is slightly slower than running them directly from a computer, but in my opinion the benefit of having them portable is much greater than the slight slowness (unnoticeable for me). Also, my computer stays fast and clean for ever, just like the day I bought it. Since nothing is installed on the computer, things like registry leftover garbage is not an issue (as it is on all windows computers) I talk in detail about these issues in a few other posts: <a href="http://etoolsonline.com/setup-portable-applications-usb-drive" rel="nofollow">etoolsonline.com/setup-portable-applications-usb-drive</a>, <a href="http://etoolsonline.com/portable-or-not-portable" rel="nofollow">etoolsonline.com/portable-or-not-portable</a>, <a href="http://etoolsonline.com/computing-portable-usb" rel="nofollow">etoolsonline.com/computing-portable-usb</a> David,

I can't imagine that your actually using all those programs on different machines, what's the advantages of keeping them portable? I guess I don't know enough about portable programs, but with my little knowledge, wouldn't they be slightly slower? Is there an advantage? As for conflicting programs, that would make sense, but for all my browser compatibility, to simplify some things, I'll probably just install a VM. Thanks for the tips!

The Toodledo is a good tool, it's just not as intuitive and as easy to use as I would like it to be. I do have a few friends that use it, but for my self I rather have a tool like TodoList Portable to manage my tasks.

I've never seen such partitioning for flash drive before, but it's looking very reasonable. Nice approach. I’ve never seen such partitioning for flash drive before, but it’s looking very reasonable.

However, many people prefer geek-mode interface instead of good-looking one. As for me Toodledo is quite good for managing things, but has an awful UI.

Yes these steps may take some time to complete, but I think it's well worth the time. Thanks for the positive feedback.
