Hi everyone,

I am building a simple presentation program, but haven't spent much time
creating such programs for web distribution.  Wondering if you could just
clarify whether I am heading in the right direction or not?

The program is simply flipping graphic slides with streaming audio.  My plan
was to preload the next graphic when the current audio file is about
two-thirds complete.
Will I run into problems if I issue a preloadNetThing() command while the
audio is streaming?
Am I better to preload the entire cast of slides (about 40 JPEGS per
presentation) and swap it out when it has arrived or just pull down each
image as I need them?
What is the most elegant method, if any, to buffer the next audio file while
the current one is playing?

Point of reference; this program needs to stream as beautifully as possible
via a 56K modem.

TIA for your insight -- any other suggestions would also be welcomed.
