Wonderful, will try. Perhaps I could bring a choice set of KDE apps
along with me on my USB HD in the near future.

Next step after that would be to investigate how to "zwitter" it into
being able to run things on Linux (maybe even Mac?) too. The executables
aren't cross-platform portable, presumably, but perhaps other things
might be. At least the data repositories (mail files, documents etc.)
and perhaps some settings files might/should be, even if libraries
probably aren't.

BR,
