being one who sails about the planet on his own, i've often had to
duck below to check my nav software whilst negotiating a passage with
the remote on the autotiller, and often get sidetracked whilst i'm
there...

until now.

what i've got running now is vnc server on the laptop with a wireless
nic and vncviewer on the wireless pda, it works like a charm and it
also means i can keep the laptop more securely stashed away in a
drawer. there's an excellent freeware version for the pocketpc and on
the pda it is much better than mstsc.

the laptop is out of the elements and less prone to be knocked about
in a storm.

happy lil vegemite

hmm now if only jrc would update their radar firmware with vnc on the
display...

Let's see, does vnc stand for very nice computer?
