He told me it would be at least two months for the Windows AS3 Update of mProjector. Could even be some considerable more time. The mac AS3 version is out in beta as you said. The official release would be sooner than the Windows version but ScreenTime couldn't give an exact date for neiher. We will be dealing with the OS, reading and writing and most propably some networking too. I checked out Zinc. My first thoughts were that it ran rather slow. Seems to me mProjector is more integrated into the production process. It will be a long term project. Maybe we'll get back on this. As for now, if I would have to select an option, I'd choose to sit and wait for the AS3 mProjector. Although sitting and waiting will be something we won't be doing here, that's for sure.
