Boot Windows XP off a USB flash drive
You can run Firefox and Thunderbird off a USB drive, and you can boot Linux from most anything, but did you know that you can run Windows XP off a flash drive? Me neither. Tom's Hardware has a slick guide to installing XP on your 256MB-or-bigger USB flash drive with Bart PE Builder for use as an emergency kit for un-borking your busted PC.

I've used this program in the past and its very good. But I used it to create a portable version of Xp that could be run straight from your cd-rom drive with no installation necessary.

site seems to be down? A petty, was really looking forward to trying that out.

That Flash Disk mock up looks sweet, I'd buy that.
And how come Tom's Hardware site is so slow? It feels like it was hosted on a dial up connection.

Cool. I've run BartPE from a CD-ROM and it's very slow and takes a long time to boot. Hopefully it can run very fast from a flash drive.
