This is the way of the future - build-it yourself computers you carry around with you on your keychain. "You can put an entire bootable operating system on these tiny flash-memory devices, or just carry around a few key files. The glorious in-between is using portable applications-software that runs off a USB drive, full installation on a PC not required." The idea is that you can just plug the USB into any system with a processor, monitor, keyboard, whatever, and be running your computer.
