"I split my life between two cities and among 3 or 4
frequently used computers. For some technical reasons I decided to
use this Asus z9100 notebook only as a data storage for the past
few months. It has no Windows or any other operating systems that
fully meet my need. The desktop you see, along with the browser,
text-email, instant messenger and many other application programs
not shown in the picture, are provided by the usb key. They don't
live on this z9100.
"During the weekend I decided to install a full operating system
on my z9100. But I needed a temporary computer to do my work while
the installation proceeded. I could use my wife's HP Pavilion, but
she would be mad if I mess with her computer and install strange
things on it. So I took the same usb key to her computer and look:
it became mine. Temporarily though. Once the installation on my
z9100 was finished, I shutdown her computer and returned to my
z9100. She didn't even notice that I ever touched her computer in
that morning."
