To me, it seems like a lot of effort when there are perhaps easier solutions -- maybe you've already considered these and they don't work for some reason or other? * if school provides network access during in-class work sessions, edit in google docs at both locations * if school's admin policies let you run an emulator executable off the USB, then you could put a windows version of Libreoffice on that USB drive and run LO in both places * you mention printing as a problem -- just generate pdf and print from windows at school? _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
