Portable Apps, The Premier Operating System And A Better Start On The Web

PortableApps delivers a free bundle of computing goodies that can be loaded onto any device—thumb drive, hard drive, iPod, whatever! Plug your drive into any computer and you’ll be rocking a fully customized PC experience—from your personal Firefox bookmarks, to your Thunderbird email, to IM contacts, to OpenOffice documents; plus, you get portable antivirus and backup programs. All apps run from within the secure and anonymous confines of your PortableApps environment—unplug the drive and remove any trace of your activities.
Portable Apps are mainstream open source or freeware Windows applications that have been repackaged to be portable. By portable, I mean the application's code and data storage requirements have been restructured to make it possible to execute them from a portable media source - a USB key or similar device - with little or no footprint on the hosting PC.
This is also exciting because of the technology has the potential to evolve beyond just altering applications for portable device deployments. The truth is that the Portable Apps model could be applied to any scenario that requires a minimal footprint deployment with isolation of application code and data. In this context, Portable Apps becomes the equivalent of an open source install. If you're currently considering an application virtualization solution you should take a quick look PortableApps.com. Download the free Portable Apps Suite demo package. It may be all the application isolation you need.
Now you can carry your favorite computer programs along with all of your bookmarks, settings, email and more with you. Use them on any Windows computer. All without leaving any personal data behind.

It's open source built around an open format that any hardware vendor or software developer can use. The Portable Apps Suite™ is free. It contains no spyware. There are no advertisements. It isn't a limited or trial version. There is no additional hardware or software to buy. You don't even have to give out your email address. It's 100% free to use, free to copy and free to share.

What is a portable app?

portable - carried or moved with ease

A portable app is a computer program that you can carry around with you on a portable device and use on any Windows computer.

And when you unplug the device, none of your personal data is left behind.

Ryanair plans very cheap long-distance flights

Ryanair boss Michael O’Leary plans launch of transatlantic no-frills airline with a fleet of 50 Airbus A350s or Boeing 787s. Around the turn of the decade this new no-frills long-haul airline is expected to serve five or six US cities from its 23 European bases and offering fares as low as $12. The new carrier will operate independently of Ryanair and buy a fleet of up to 50 Airbus A350s or Boeing 787s at a time when chief executive Michael O'Leary expects prices to dip following the current surge in orders.
There has long been speculation that Ryanair will enter the long-haul market, but this is the first time O'Leary has outlined concrete plans. In an exclusive interview to be published in next week’s Flight International magazine, he says the recent Open Skies agreement, which allows airlines to operate transatlantic flights without individual national bilateral deals from 2008, has made it possible.
