Turn Your iPod Into Full Working PC
What if your entire PC could fit on your iPod (or any other MP3 player, hard drive, USB flash device or even a cell phone)? No more struggling with excess laptop weight and your fully-rigged mobile “computer” would fit right in your pocket.
RingCube Technologies, Inc. says that’s when you’ve got your Mojo working. It just launched a new software application called MojoPac. Essentially, it turns any storage device into a bootable PC that can store all of your important applications and data on it. To access them, all you need to do is plug your device into any PC or Mac. MojoPac will boot itself to life and the PC you’re working from can look just like the one you left at home.
When you plug the MojoPac into any PC you can use the PC screen, keyboard, PC mouse…the iPod or flash device acts as your hard disk and you can access all of your applications and documents.

Nothing really new there, in my opinion. USB drives loaded up with a distro of Linux have been around for at least 2 years, and do the same.
Also, is this really ANY PC? Because surely for this to work, you’d have to be able to have it as a device which boots up from USB. Older computers won’t.
As someone who follows tech news, I’d say that this isn’t huge. What you really need is something that lays on top of Windows and has all your documents, settings, etc, and closes when you remove the drive. Now that would be progress…
