Re: [CGUYS] Logmein
Don't study ... just try it out. It will take 5 mins to set up and a few more to get used to it. Just set up an account at LogMeIn and download the software from there and install it on the two machines and then log on. db Jordan wrote: db wrote: LogMeIn is easy as cake... a great tool.

I've read some of the info and FAQs and looked at some of their demos, but sometimes they are less than specific. Do you think the computers can be using WiFi? I guess if all you need is a browser on the control computer and the software on the controlled computer, the answer is yes.

Windows comes with Remote Assistance. But it requires someone at the other end to answer. And port forwarding I think.

It saves me many schleps to the machine. * ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *
Re: [CGUYS] Logmein
I have been using LogMeIn forever- love it so much better than the alternatives. But, there is only one choice if you have the PalmPre and want to run/check out a Desktop (Mac or PC).

Re: [CGUYS] Logmein
I use the free version of Logmein a lot on my PCs. It's main claim to fame is it's ability to work on any system with a working browser; no fancy configurations required. > db or anyone else, how did the logmein work for you, and are there any >> other programs like that, that work for the Mac? >> > * ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *
