And then when I handed my drive to somebody to share a file with them, I had to tell them to hold down the shift key while they inserted it so the U3 launchpad wouldn't run. They'd always look at me like I was from Mars.
Then my wife lost (and then found) the cap to her USB drive she runs Allway Sync from. So I started searching for her a USB drive that didn't need a cap.
I came across Super Talent's Pico-C.
I got her one at SuperMediaStore. Believe it or not, they're cooler than they look.

So I got an 8GB from SuperMediaStore and moved my content over to it.
But wait, now I needed a menu!
I've used a couple of PortableApps but while they worked great, I didn't like the branding. I thought maybe I could use their menu system and delete all the branded stuff. Then I stumbled across PStart.
Perfect. The menu starts empty and you can just right click and add items. There's lots of flexibility to tailor the menu. There are just 2 files involved: PStart.exe and PStart.xml.
It's so clean. It puts an icon in the system tray (I'll get to how in another post.) A single left click brings up this menu.
