A small new geek toy: U3 technology and USB
Tags :Geek Toys
I went ahead and ordered the Kingston U3
Data Traveler (1GB) to not only
finally get a USB drive, but to add the cool portable desktop theory.
So far I have managed to load and easily configure a few pieces of
software:
- Trillian for U3
- Firefox for U3
- Skype for U3
- Diskshredder
- Filezilla
- A small (1MB in size) PDF reader! Quite quick. Awesome for server work with readme or install files and no Adobe
First thoughts are that I am impressed with the technology, the ease on installation, the ease of the launcher and a bunch of smaller things. I am planning on loading the OpenOffice version for U3 this weekend to have a look at that functionality too.
Anyone else using U3 before I play around with it this weekend and blog it some more?
