    Dad gave me a good idea…

    Saturday, May 10th, 2003

    Our Netgear router (or equivalant)???Dad gave me a good idea yesterday. Melody (my aunt on Dad’s side) should get VNC on her computer. You may not know this, but Melody is the only other person to have high speed internet (DSL or Cable; she has Vermontel DSL, we have Time Warner Cable’s Road Runner).
    ???(Quoted from Versiontracker.com):”What is VNC? - A practical introductionVNC stands for Virtual Network Computing. It is, in essence, a remote display system which allows you to view a computing ‘desktop’ environment not only on the machine where it is running, but from anywhere on the Internet and from a wide variety of machine architecture”
    ???So I could control her computer to fix any problems she is having. I could also use it on you dial up users, but I dont wanna. She could also control my computers if she wanted to. But there is this one problem over here, the router won’t let her. I’ll work on it.
    ???Speaking of routers, Melody if your reading this you should get a router, too. A router would allow both the computers to access the internet at the same time. Right now I’m downloading something on my iMac, putting an update on the new iMac, and writing this very thing on the Dell. By the way, if you want a mac-friendly router, we have a Netgear one. Talk to my Dad about what routers to get. And you still get to use the phone and have the same blazing speed of DSL.
    ???I’m defragging my Hard Drive right now and my computer is non-responsive. I’ve got to let it alone, so I’ll stop writing now.
