Has anyone had experience putting Opus Pub (non Flex) on a USB Drive?

What I am thinking is to give the User some flexibility. But this becomes a licensing or control issue too.

Maybe this question has 2 parts.

1) How to "guide" a user install so that the working directory is the Flash Drive. That should hold the bulk of the Pub's content, as well as all writeable files and databases. User does some work at work, takes Pub home and continues. Maybe this is as simple as designating the "working directory" on Launch (when initially running a Pub on a new machine and is not an install issue)? I'm lost.

2) Is there a way to allow Install of Opus executable on 3 or 4 PC's, but with some degree of control so license to use is not abused. Some license/control variables could be in Registry(-ies). As with #1 above, all working content and files would be on Removable Drive.

* If user forgets his Flash Drive, just can't proceed... if he loses the Drive, he loses his work -- bookmarks and saved text input, any learning progress. Could reinstall, start over. That's the risk. Maybe I'd figure a way to facilitate a backup?

Any ideas appreciated.
