i store a version of inferno on a little usb flash device that i keep
on my keyring.

on most windows computers, i can just plug it in the back, double
click, and up comes my usual environment.  initially it's a bit slow
running directly off the flash, but just fine once all the bits have
been obtained.

i can use this for a drawterm connection too.

i find this useful whereever there are only windows machines and i
want to check email, etc.  it saves carrying a laptop around -
particularly useful in net caf=C3=A9s when on holiday...
