I had a brain wave today and I don't have the equipment to test it out. I've always been interested in
Portable Apps, they seems like really nice, convenient things. You can install a program onto a USB stick or an SD card and run it from anywhere, never actually having to actually install it. Particularly nice for people who go from a desktop to a laptop often and don't want to lose any settings or anything.
When I had the realization about being able to drag and drop your entire NWN folder to reinstall, without ever having to have the disks (
see here), it got me thinking. I bet you could just drag and drop that whole folder onto a USB stick or an SD card and play it from anywhere, even an office computer that doesnt allow you to install programs (not that any of the hard working people here would
dream of doing that). My NWN folder is nearly 10GB, so it would take a hefty disk to copy it to. But flash memory has been getting cheaper and cheaper. Also, I don't have a windows machine to try it with, lol.
This has been a ramble, courtesy of Shifty's brain [/ramble].
