Default install Excel application on a USB keyfob?


I have a 2GB Iomega thumb (mini) drive where I downloaded OO so I could run
spreadsheets on machines that don't have XL.

Iomega calls this feature "Active Disk", and you can download many different
programs to the thumb drive and take them along with you.

Never tried to use the sites download feature on any other brand.

Might work ? ! ? !

Here's a new one.

A colleague just asked me if Excel could be installed on a USB keyfob.

My gut says no but I'm curious to hear from others. Storage space wouldn't
be the issue (it's a 2 gb keyfob). I've never heard of applications being
run off USB storage devices though.

Thoughts?
