Windows XP on a USB stick

Windows XP - USB StickI’m buying a new 8 Gig USB stick with 20Mb/sec. transfer speed. So, this crazy idea came on into my mind, what if I could boot WindowsXP from a stick, without the need of hard drive, installing apps on a stick, using it as my primary platform. And then, in matter of minutes I was researching the idea and found out that it’s possible, great! But, I hate this “but”.. you must pass trough hell to make it possible, I’ve lost two days trying and I gave up, ain’t worth it - for now! But I hope that one day windows will support this idea, could be very useful.

If you want to make a bootable linux (any distribution) it’s a piece of cake, use liveusb-creator application, select bootable linux iso file, insert USB stick and viola! :) You will have a bootable linux in 10 minutes. Don’t use slow (usb 1.0 or 1.1) flash drives.

#Should I wait or should I buy now..

iPhone 3G and iPod Touch with GPSCan’t wait for WWDC 2008 at San Francisco, only 11 days left. I’m waiting to find out more about new iPhone and iPod Touch which will include GPS and 3G (iPhone) I hope. It’s silly to buy any Apple product before this date so I’m going to wait for my new gadget a few days.
