what a good guy huh... for the love of people... or the love of money.... doubt it will catch on though >.> hope it does however.
11USD for 1BTC does not tell me it will not catch on, it already did, let's just hope for a steady climb, the BTC currency can only gain fame/value the more you use it, the only pain in the ass, is the synchronization, I never got to finish it, though I have made a nice bash script to mount your pendrive(with your wallet and bitcoin software), decrypt your wallet, launch your software and upon closing it will encrypt your wallet and unmount, but I think I will keep it simple and just mount the important stuff, and leave the rest in the system.

Do not use it, it still needs some stripping to do and make it simpler.

# README ##################################################################
# This script is made with the intentions of mounting your USB directory, #
# decrypting/encrypting your wallet and erasing traces, all while in your #
# USB drive, basically no data is ever "stored" in the computer. All of #
# is done inside your USB drive. This script is meant to be ran inside #
# the terminal, currently, only Linux is supported. #
###########################################################################
# Instruction #############################################################
# If you have a previous wallet, please back it up into your USB drive, #
# erase the ".bitcoin" folder found in '/home/USERNAME/.bitcoin', once #
# you are done, you may start this script inside a terminal, make sure #
# the USB is connected at all times. #
