[Use-revolution] RE: Networking

[Monte Goulding]

To everyone who has helped with this

Thanks ;-)

I'm just checking out the two main options Dave and DoubleTalk. Seeing as I
am more Windows oriented and my fastest computer runs Win XP I'm going to go
for the "disguise Mac as a PC options".

Regards to all

Monte

Thanks for this info.  Problem for me is, my Windows network rarely works
correctly, much less is it as easy to setup/manage as a Mac network. :-)
