Jeff Atwood from Coding Horror fame recently wrote about USB memory sticks and why we don’t ‘yet’ put our whole computing environment one a flash drive. Basically it comes down to speed according to him. Personally, for the last year or so with no problems, I’ve been using my memory stick to store development code on so that I can easily work between different machines. At work I check the code out onto the stick, take it out and work disconnect at home on another machine. Next morning I just plug in my stick and commit the changes to the repository. Obviously the environment needs tweaking, for instance when dealing with databases etc. Also check the company policy regarding security.
