Charles, Maybe I've missed your (or maybe John's) point. I think John is sayig that it doesn't matter how accessable a ISV's system is if access to demos on those systems is blocked at the potential customer's site. We are have that situation at my shop. Non-corporate PCs are not allowed on our LAN, and internet connections to/from corporate PCs on the LAN are blocked for most ports. (Yes, paranoia is a prereq for employment here.) Vendors trying to give demos here have real problems.
