A) "Possible" is a BIG word. So is "anywhere". If you could narrow
these two down a bit it might help answer your question.

B) Why? Posgrgres is a network aware service so your clients can
generally attach TO the server FROM "anywhere" so why have a portable
installation? Not arguing, just trying to understand.
