Re: [CAD_CAM_EDM_DRO] Re: Black box again

Hi Joe,

Sounds like you definitely need to network your computers together - your
legs are not going to hold out!!! ;o)

There are utilities available (some for free) which will let you actually
use one PC as a terminal into the other so that you can work on it as though
you were sitting at the other one. I use one called vnc (or winvnc) which
lets me do this between any two windows or linux computers on my system - it
don't half save on the leg work!
