BTW, you can move current ON notebooks to the thumbdrive by right-clicking
the notebook in the left column, selecting properties, and changing the
location to the thumbdrive. Don't worry in which USB port you stick the
drive, ON names the thumbdrives and keeps that info internally so it can ID
the drive when you reconnect again.
