It's officially supported. 14:17:04 pa_9975, hi. The prblem is not the download, but rather the fact that the apps on PortableApps.com are in general windows only. They may work with Wine though. IIRC there's been another project for portable Linux apps, maybe I can dig up the link 14:17:32 thanks 14:17:49 I always found using WINE a little annoying 14:18:57 Here it is: http://portablelinuxapps.org/ . IT#s 14:19:15 thanks 14:19:32 but presumably those won't run on Windows. What would be really cool would be cross platform apps 14:19:35 *It's not affiliated with this project here though and I never used 'em myself, so I can't guarantee you anything on them 14:21:17 Unfortunately, creating portable cross-platform applications is almost impossible. :( 14:21:56 Gpg4usb ( http://gpg4usb.cpunk.de/ ) is the only example I know. 14:22:09 Yeah, that's what I imagined. What would be ideal for me would be a, let's say, Firefox code that detects the OS and runs the appropriate version, using the same profile folder 14:23:08 One problem would be that you'd need every executable multiple times, thus increasing package sizes 14:23:41 I don't really mind, got plenty of space on my USB 14:24:10 it's obviously not anybody's priority right now, I just think it would be great in the future 14:24:46 It simply annoys me that Linux is better in almost every way, except there are a few pieces of Windows-only Software that I cant do without 14:26:04 *** Pyromaniac (~JW_Hough@ip68-107-136-221.tc.ph.cox.net) has joined #portableapps 14:27:39 pa_9975: I agree with that. Windows-only software is basically the ONLY reason why I use Windows at all, yet I use Windows nearly all the time. 14:28:45 The problem is obviously that there's no corporate benefit in developing software for Linux 14:28:52 Hopefully ReactOS ( http://www.reactos.org/en/index.html ) will be usable one day... 14:29:25 Surely Windows won't allow some part of it 14:29:31 *Microsoft 14:31:24 *** Pyromaniac has quit (Disconnected by services) 14:32:34 The thing that brings me back to Windows is the music players, actually.

Ext3 and NTFS will hopefully be implemented in the future. 14:39:03 Right. Personally I've always been a fan of minimalism when it comes to PCs. That's why Windows just doesn't cut it 14:39:20 When I have the time I might try a very basic Linux install 14:40:06 Have you been watching Google Chrome OS too? 14:41:06 No, I haven't. 14:42:36 The cloud computing model could revolutionize operating systems and boot Windows off its podium for good 14:47:07 * Pyromaniac1 doesn't like cloud computing 14:48:20 its the future 14:48:41 * benedikt93 neither 14:50:23 well, it kills portable apps :D 14:51:15 I think they will coexist for some time. 14:53:04 *** pa_9975 has quit (Quit: Page closed) 14:53:35 the biggest issue I see with teh cloud is lack of mobility and access 14:54:19 unless everyone can easily get free internet access everywhere, which of course will never happen 14:55:07 exactly 14:55:22 also, there is privacy issues in storing your data at a third party 14:59:23 which is why companys (at least larger ones) won't use it, I guess 15:02:43 Companies will use clouds simply because they want to look modern. 15:03:52 *** Pyromaniac1 has quit (Ping timeout: 252 seconds) 15:08:39 *** Pyromaniac1 (~JW_Hough@ip68-107-136-221.tc.ph.cox.net) has joined #portableapps 15:10:28 so I'm getting a new computer thursday from my lawyer who's throwing his 4 year-old pc out 15:10:43 which will replace my current 10-year-old 15:11:13 he wants me to wipe it because there's a lot of personal/legal stuff on it 15:12:04 I'm thinking of just bringing one of my Ubuntu cds and formatting it from there, but I don't want to lose windows from it 15:12:54 if i were you, i'd wipe it and then reinstall windows 15:13:06 I have no cd 15:13:37 it's a desktop 15:14:03 Then I suggest that you discuss with him. 15:14:19 he has absolutely no clue about computers 15:14:50 the reason he's throwing it out is because the moniter has been fading in and out lately! 15:16:31 I'm ok with ubuntu, or most other linux distros, but I only do stuff in windows 15:16:36 You can say that you'll "delete all personal files" and delete his user profile. 15:16:58 nope, I have to "wipe it" in front of him 15:17:46 Pyromaniac1, if he's giving you a windows license with it, i don't see why you can't use another windows disc (e.g. from a friend) for installation 15:18:43 *** Pyromaniac2 (~JW_Hough@ip68-107-136-221.tc.ph.cox.net) has joined #portableapps 15:19:14 Pyromaniac2, if he's giving you a windows license with it, i don't see why you can't use another windows disc (e.g. from a friend) for installation 15:19:49 ah, thats right! ^O^O^O^ 15:20:21 I completely forgot it has the little license number on it 15:21:04 thanks sar3th 15:21:35 oh, that reminds me, I broke my (legit) Office 2007 Enterprise installation 15:21:45 *** Pyromaniac1 has quit (Ping timeout: 264 seconds) 15:24:21 when I try to run word or something, I get an error that the configuration is incorrect.
