Well, we here at Emory University have tried many times to bring this
to market. We have been pushing in every direction we have available.
We even went so far as to make a proposal to do joint work on it with
Sun. 

This would make it ideal for our situation. Instructors could setup
their demonstrations from the comfort of their own desktop in their
office and then have it ready for use on the SunRay in the classrooms.
This would prevent them from having to waste class time in order to 
get demos setup.

I am greatly disappointed by your comments.
