Portable version of XAMPP (missing?)

Little help please.
I cannot find the portable (no install required) version of XAMPP. What I was able to download from apache friends (XAMPP for Windows 1.8.2 & 1.8.3) is a Bitnami version that, while it calls itself a portable install (xampp-portable-win32-1.8.3-2-VC11-installer.exe), requires admin privileges to execute. Is there an actual portable version available and where can I get it?
Thanks for any help.

Portable does not mean "no admin privileges needed" but "put me on a portable device and carry me around"
In your case you should try out the zip or 7z versions you can find at sourceforge http://sourceforge.net/projects/xampp/f ... 20Windows/

That's interesting, I hadn't thought of portable that way. Thank you for the file location - I'm all set now.
