I’m glad to see the banners are gone.

So’s Microsoft Office, if you consider that the smallest USB drives you can get now are at least a gig. Size hardly matters anymore.

What does matter is whether the program can work in standalone mode, without requiring information that’s stashed in the registry, and without depending on other utilities and libraries to be present on the host computer.
