I tired to install the alternative that was talked about before.  But, I 
could not get it to "install" onto the 4 or 16 GB flash drive or now 
called Jump drives by Windows.

I do not know if it was WinPenPacks or a different name.

All I remember was that I downloaded the package/system and tried to 
"install" it to the USB jump drive and it only gave me errors and would 
not install, let alone run LO from it.

As for the Portable Apps, well they did not take much time to come out 
with the 4.1.0 version.  Sometimes they do not have time to release one 
version before the next "normal" install version comes out.  If everyone 
seems to move to the 4.0.x line, then there may be little call for 
making a 3.6.6 or 3.6.7 version.  When 4.1.3or .4 comes out, will they 
be making a 4.0.6 version?  maybe not.

If there is a "marketing call" for both versions of the portable system, 
then I would be willing to have both listed on the NA-DVD. Now that Mac 
PPC systems are no longer supported in the 4.1.x line, I have not 
problem with space on that disc and should have free space on the 4.0.x 
disc.

Just need to be able to place a working copy on to the jump drive[s] 
from a Win7 Home Premium laptop, and get it to run properly from there.  
I will have to uninstall LO from a different Windows system though.
