Applications, applications, & more applications...

There is a most important point that needs to be made here: all of the apps listed below are in that approx 90-100MB Puppy distribution -- they are not extras that have to be downloaded later. So, it all runs in a ramdisk, and it all installs in a 256M usb flash card with over half left over for your data. Prepare to be amazed...
