Well, it is a little goofy. We can have internet access at any meeting that we request it, but due to their restrictive firewall/proxy rules it must be done via an employee's computer. Robert is driving over there this afternoon to set up his computer in the conference room for us to use. Since tonight's meeting will be an Acrobat Connect presentation, we only require the use of a browser and Flash player. More complex presentations requiring a ColdFusion server or development environment are more of a challenge.

So the meeting is in the same place, but now we'll have internet access? I'm not going to be able to make it tonight (sadly), but I just wanted to clarify that in case anyone else was wondering the same thing. Also, just out of curiosity, if there'll be internet access tonight, why isn't there internet access for every meeting. It would simplify some presentations, or at least allow presentations to be... less restricted. Thanks for all the hard work Dave.
