   Hi! Alexander,   
      
   On Sun, 04 May 14, you wrote to me:   
      
    ak>    I use Thunderbird mail program, and I set up its folders at my   
    ak> movable USB driver. So, I can read/write as from my home computer as   
    ak> well as from my office computer, and my messages are stored in one   
    ak> place.   
      
   So do I, on two PCs: one on my 'office' desktop under the house and another on   
   a netbook in my daughter's room (recall we spoke about the unclean table).    
   Even though the netbook has two boot options already for different Linux   
   versions, I use a Linux USB boot stick with saved configurations on it for six   
   different PCs.  I'm toying with the idea of creating the user 'home' directory   
   on a separate partition on the USB, so that things like Thunderbird's   
   directory structure could be shared by the various boot configurations.  This   
   is something easily done in a Linux environment.   
      
   For Windows, you might like to checkout 'Portable Apps' (via your favourite   
   search engine).  They have the same notion, where you can take your favourite   
   Windows environment to any PC.  :)  I think it's *free* and worth checking.

   It's nice to know but I don't know what to do with the information.[giggle]   
      
   Cheers,   
   Paul.   
      
   ... I got lost in thought.  It was unfamiliar territory.
