RE: [APML] pc remote control software

Matthew:

Just a quick note to pass along a link for PC Anywhere.  Compusa, who is not
necessarily the cheapest source has PCA for $199 US.

http://www.compusa.com/products/product_info.asp?product_code=288524

I see from your address that you may be outside the USA, but they would
probably ship anywhere.  I suppose that exchange rates will also have a
great deal to do with final cost.  If this link doesn't help, feel free to
email me back off-list, at craigwatson@prodigy.net and I will be happy to do
a little more research.

Kindest regards,
Craig Watson

VNC.

Cross platform, simple, free, and just works!  It should work fine with
a DOS shell in window mode.

The URL was posted earlier on the list.
