- By default all packages are installed if selection is not modified during the installation
- Added basic IPython support
- Added Pandas

Installation and use:
---------------------
After downloading, run the installer, select the packages you would like to install, select the target folder and you are done! In the root folder of the distribution you will find shortcuts for selected applications. Some of the most popular free Python IDE’s come preinstalled and preconfigured with Portable Python. How to use and configure them further please consult their documentation or project sites.

Download location: http://portablepython.com/wiki/PortablePython2.7.4.1

Warning: Default installation installs all packages - make sure to review packages selection during installation process as it can take quite some time to install 545MB on the USB drive(s).

Please use "feedback and support" section on the portal to request new packages or to report issues.

I hope you will have some fun with it !
