Just What is a "Mobile" Desktop?

Imagine - Carrying important files along with a customized file and web browser (with integrated pop-up blocker) that can manage and organize all shortcuts and web favorites - without bringing a laptop computer! When run from a removable media device (like a USB drive), Optimal Desktop Mobile lets you do this and more!

The combination of Optimal Desktop Mobile and a USB drive lets you conveniently bring your files and favorites with you from machine to machine (just plug in and go!)
Carry all of your browser favorites with you, including secure recorded passwords for your protected sites -- then organize and browse them from our incredibly powerful 3D-Matrix tabbed interface!
Optimal Desktop Mobile runs with a minimal footprint on PC systems (no installer, and no leftover DLLs or registry entries) -- it is quite friendly to "locked down" PCs, including those used by Universities and Libraries
A built-in alias manager means that shortcuts to files stored on the removable drive remain valid even when the drive letter changes (when you connect the drive to different computers)
Since Optimal Desktop Mobile has a built-in ZIP utility (with support for encryption), you can safely bring along sensitive files with built-in tools for extracting them.

Optimal Desktop Mobile is perfect for traveling engineers, sales people, computer consultants and anyone who needs access to their desktops anywhere on any computer.

Simply plug your removable drive onto any computer and launch your own personal desktop. Store the navigation of each location you visit in a separate Optimal Desktop portal, so that no matter where you go, you are always in familiar territory!

Here is what you get with Optimal Desktop Mobile:

Personal custom tabbed navigation of unlimited sites stored in separate Optimal Desktop portals
Secure password recorder, so you can get to your protected sites safely from anywhere
Pop-up blocker, so you can block annoying pop-ups, no matter what system you are on
Alias manager for managing shortcuts to files and folders stored on your removable drive
Integrated ZIP management to maximize storage on the removable drive
