[mso] Re: Can I install & run Office from a memory stick?

I don't see why an application can't be installed on a memory stick, after 
all it's simply emulating a removable disk.  I've never tried it, but I 
certainly install minor applications on USB hard drives.

However, I would suspect that the memory stick would be too slow for 
effective performance.
