So, to use Ginge's analogy, you don't expect the UK govt to maintain and improve roads, including building new roads, because some people drive 'dodgy' cars (be that stolen, uninsured, unroadworthy, unlicensed, whatever)? Oh and yet again, you're focussing on the UK. Here in NL, the act dowloading anything other that software is entirely legal. -- Dnc

I've had quite a lot of success using vnc to access EDA tools remotely on slow connections. Saying that, occasionally it is unusable due to the latency but then the whole internet experience is goosed when your connection is that bad. Although now tend I to use an NX server at the company gateway and connect using an NX client. You can then run RDP or vnc sessions within it and this works extremely well, even with very slow connections. -- DozynSleepy |
