Amen to that. Most of my client base are medical professionals who have
problems identifying with the functions of a mouse, much less what type of a
connection to the internet they have.

| Auto-installation would make a huge difference. I get a dozen or more
emails
| a week from people who don't want or don't know how to install the Real
| Player.
|
| The problem is actually getting worse as more and more people come on line
| expecting the Internet to work like a consumer device - ie flick a switch
| and it happens.
|
| When BBC Radio 5 Live first started webcasting two years ago, almost all
our
| audience had the technical knowledge to install (and debug the
installation)
| of the Real Player. Now, most of our audience don't have the patience or
| knowledge to install it themselves and then blame us for any problems.
|
| Auto-installation would be a god-send.
