Unfortunately *part* of my job is to keep our network and 300+ devices operating. I keep things very simple here so I don't have to constantly tweak everything. I totally agree with the "Appliance" analogy and have said it many times using a "toaster" as a model.
I've been in retail all of my life and I feel I pretty much understand what the average Joe wants from a product and service. I've been in the automotive end of things for 26 years and believe me I've been told, in no uncertain terms, what the buying public wants :-) Very glad to hear your install went well and everything is working. A bit of caution on the server issue. If you go that way, it puts you one step further from help. At least it has worked that way with the Netgear ReadyNAS Duo. As I mentioned, I was thinking all of my problems might be alieviated by just going to a PC set up, but in my friends case it didn't prove true. Still, if I wasn't using a 3rd party version of SC 7.0 then help might be easier to get. Same with the XM features. Have fun.. Howard BTW, my first "PC" was an IBM 360. Let's see how old everyone is :-) -- Howard Passman Sorry slow to respond. I don't spend that much time online. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Howard Passman's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=16674 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=47302 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
