A remote possibility
I am looking forward to talking about remote control software and giving a demonstration of Timbuktu Pro at the LAUG meeting next Wednesday April 4th. I’ll also be giving away a two-license pack of Timbuktu Pro (a $200 value) courtesy of Motorola as one of the door prizes. LAUG board member Matt Kappenman is reviewing Timbuktu for the LAUG and will post his thoughts here as well.
Although I will be demonstrating Timbuktu, I will also be discussing what remote control software is in general and how it can be useful for you. Basically, if you have more then one Mac in your house, have friends or family members with Macs, or have a computer at work and at home, you probably could save time, stress and money with remote control software (and don’t almost all of use fall into at least one of those categories?)
In addition to Timbuktu Pro, there are numerous other remote control products that work with Macs. Below you can find links to all the various products. I’ll talk about many of these on Wednesday. After the meeting you can come back here rather then try to remember all those URLs.
