Turn a storage device into your personal PC
MojoPac has the ability to transform your personal storage device into a powerful private PC. Your iPod, phone, USB hard drive, and your USB flash drive can all now be the only item you need to carry around to get the job done. With MojoPac installed on your device, and applications and files loaded, you can automatically launch your environment onto any host PC running Windows XP. Music, games, files, and applications are all accessible, within a local view.
MojoPac seems like a promising application, with some great features for security and protection, as well as convenience, and personal preference settings. A number of companies now have IT policies, and restrictions for what types of applications users can install on computers, running MojoPac on your device is a way around this. When you unplug your device from the computer you were using, there are no traces of your personal info that are left behind. It is a portable solution that can be loaded onto a number of different devices to ensure your job gets done, in a secure, convenient way.

This is a gift from heavens for me, since I need to work on the go on several internet cafes, and most of the time I spend it setting basic apps up, like Firefox and mIRC.
Lets hope it can live up to the expectations.

If you don't want to shell out 30 (or 50) bucks, PortableApps.com is a directory of... uhm, portable apps. It's just loose apps, not a complete framework, but it might be worth a try. It is also FREE, and perhaps in the future it could get closer to mojopac's spiffiness.

Wow, what a huge dissapointment for what I anticipated to be a great application! Take a look through the forums to hear what the beta testers thought about how it worked (or didn't work). Guess I'll check back in 6 months to see if they're able to do what they say they can.

You mean, something like QEMU?
(own horn tooting, as an example of what is possible)

With the added bonus that QEMU is free, will run just about any OS, and run _on_ any os...
MojoPac has the slick veneer of a shady app.
