I'm still a fan of static-linked binaries.  No DLL hell,
no installer that has to know where to scatter a myriad
of files, no breakages when a library gets updated.
Just run the one file from anywhere and it Just Works.  

    Perfection is achieved, not when there is nothing more
    to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.
