Hi,

Thanks Mark - I really should have spotted the review on your website in
the
first place....

There's not really lot separating these guys in terms of cost.
What about OS support - RedRat seems to have support for Linux and FreeBSD
kicking about, but I couldn't seem to find much in terms of that for
Concept
Device's PCRemote.

Thoughts ?

Anyone out there running either of these guys day-to-day ?

Cheer,
Bob
