[texhax] Running LaTex off a stick.

[Tom Backer Johnsen]

By accident I came across this site the other day: 
http://portableapps.com/.  Which started me thinking about saving 
weight, if I could have everything I normally need on a stick, I would 
not have to carry a computer around.  These sticks are getting cheaper 
very day and increasing in capacity all the time (the price of an 8GB 
one is about 125 Euros now)

So, is it possible to run something like MikTex off a stick for one 
thing?  And are there any suitable editors around (for the most part I 
use WinEdt) ?
