Synergy has been good about letting me have a key for my office and shop PC, of course, I suppose some things can be done with the demo mode. I am just a little nervous about having a PC crash and not being able to get a new key right away if needed. So far, I haven't had a problem, support has been good and policies fair. Another issue, for me at least, is that I don't use Synergy enough to keep current. I end up having to relearn some features. This may be typical for applications of this complexity. Many years ago, I got training for a CAD/CAM system called Cadam. One of its features was a dedicated supplemental keyboard which had keys for the most used procedures, such as draw; line, circle, etc., or various snap methods, and others. Each key had a light that would activate when the key's feature was appropriate or when you needed prompting. It was a joy to use, unfortunately, I haven't seen anything like it since. -- Kirk Wallace http://www.wallacecompany.com/machine_shop/ http://www.wallacecompany.com/E45/index.html California, USA ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Register Now for Creativity and Technology (CaT), June 3rd, NYC.
