From TFA: the Computer Repair Utility Kit is a combination of computer repair tools in one easy to use pack. The Computer Repair Utility Kit allows you to run all of the repair tools from your portable drive (eg. USB Flash Drive, External Hard Drive, IPod etc.) and comes with an easy to use, right-click menu. A must in any computer technicians kit.

I keep an amalgam of this and the PortableApps suite on a USB drive for times when I am at friends, family or client's places; where inevitably they mention they've got a computer issue...

Nice. Always wondering what to do with that spare thumb drive I had kicking in my bag...

Cool! How big of thumb drive do you need for this?

That's crazy... I built the exact same thing using PStart about two years ago. Somewhat different programs, of course.

Sorry, I should have included a link to the Portable Apps site.
