What did you find in Director that was lacking in these other projector tools? Well, a fully featured programming language for a start :) It depends a lot I suppose on exactly what you are trying to achieve. Initially, some things can be more labour intensive in Director (for instance, full

The problem I found with Director is you have to go out and buy a bunch of Xtras to really achieve anything notable. All you need with Director for OS level control is BuddyAPI. There is another extra to disable certain key combos (like CTRL+ALT+DEL, etc.) for kiosk purposes but the name of
