I have never missed a sim for an O's game.

I have missed sims for my wife.

What's wrong with those priorities?

I use webex for professional reasons, and yes you are correct it is a bit tooe xpensive for recreational use on an ongoing basis. I believe that VNC has some features where you can do a share desktop to multiple people viewing though. I personally have only done it in point to point demos, but I know others who say they do it with 1 to multi demos. I am guessing the screen performance might degrade poorly with many people and you need to make sure screen refresh is set to fast, but it might work for what you are wanting. Plus it is free.

Look about four paragraphs down. It explains how you can use it in educational environments for demonstrations of one person's machine. That sounds like what you are most interested in.

"Educational"?

I really appreciate the tip. Going to fool around with it a bit to see how well it would work for our uses. I knew there had to be something out there.

Kelly Brook.

This question has been asked so many times I'm starting to think it should be on the FAQ board.

EDIT: That pic and others can be found at: http://rushmagazine.com/kellybrook/kelly.htm

It really should be. That's about the ninth time I believe, not counting about 40 PMs..

I am interested in hearing how it works for you. I would imagine the screen refresh rate might cause problems reading fast scrolling text... but it would be really cool if it works well.

I would boot him immediately. The other owners may start getting tired of his ranting and decide the league isn't fun anymore.
