Hi guys!!
I need an honest answer. Would you recommend the software Virtual PC? I would like to bring some of my work home but I have PCs at my jobsite. I have aready installed MacLinkPlus. I am not to happy with it. ( If i am using it correctly?) I would also like to view webcams from PC users. Please help me, again. :)
Thanks, Jazz

There are programs which you can use to talk to PC users with a webcam, ivisit and cuseeme for example.

I've not used VPC so I can't really comment, although I have read some glowing reviews of it.

No problem :)

If you're going to play with CU See Me, be aware that as a result of what appears to be some legal wranglings that I can't be bothered reading up on in any great detail, there are two versions of the software, one a freebie from Cornell University, one a commercial (aka not freebie) product.

The freebie is at http://www.cu-seeme.net/ the commercial one is at http://www.fvc.com/
