Whoops. Sorry for the fake-out email! The joys of touch screen phones. :P
Hey Chris, Morae is still the gold standard. I'm not really clear on why you were disappointed. Perhaps you weren't running it at the proper resolution? Silverback is a fairly equivalent option of Morae for the Mac at the low, low price of ~$49. There are also plenty of web based subscription services that do a pretty good job, such as UserVue, Userzoom, etc. Check out this list of screen capture software, organized by your OS preference: *http://www.iaapps.com/index.php/component/mtree/Screen-Capture-Software* ** Good luck!
