on windows it should be really easy to run pd from a usb-drive/stick,
since there are no other dependencies. just extract pd to the stick.
then i'd recommend to write all options into a .bat-file and start pd
from that file. using file->startup and file->path will write the
options to the registry, which isn't saved to the usb stick. also, i
would specify all paths relatively, so that it doesn't matter on which
'letter' (E:, F:, G:, ....) the usb stick will be installed.
