Clean PC with you wherever you go

November 5th 2007

I carry my laptop with me wherever I go. Not when I go shoppping but a lot. But I have one problem with it and with all computers I have ever used in the past. I try a lot of software and I like doing that but it slows down my PC so much that it is getting irritating. I keep reinstalling it. Recently I tested Mojopac. What you do is add a harddisk / usb drive or any other external storage device to your PC and install Mojopac to it. Then start the program and it shows you a clear and crisp XP install.

You now have two computers running.

  1. Your host PC
  2. Your Mojopac PC.

Anything you install on your Mojopac PC will stay on your Mojopac installation and not on your host PC. It works very good. This gives me the opportunity to test software on my own PC and when I like it I will go on to the host PC. This will prevent it (or at least slow down the process of) getting slower and slower over the months.

Another thing is that if you do not own a laptop or you have a desktop at home and a desktop at the office you could carry your home environment with you. Just start your mojopac installation at home and use it from your external drive. Whenever you put this external drive into your computer at work you get the same setting you have at home. Even your personal e-mail, skype, ebay auctions etc… etc…

Now it is time for you employers to get scared because you can switch between the Mojopac and host PC with a click of the button. Any signal of the Mojopac PC (aside from a small systemtray item) will be silenced making it possible to switch between hobby and work with a flick of the switch.

And when you are a computer samaritan maintaining your family and friends’ computers all the time you could install a set of assisting programs, plug into the computer of the perosn you are trying to help and start using your settings to help them and not their, most of the time, Mickey Mouse settings.

You could also for that purpose use U3.
