RE: (TV) Television on at 6pm NYC time: webcast help

["Greg Grant" <GGrant@scdhb.sk.ca>]

Thanks Maurice,

I think I'll also try a trial run hooking up to something else this weekend
that is offered in similar fashion.  I have high speed net at work by our IT
guys were ordered to install spy programs to monitor net use, we received a
memo saying no after hours use, and for the most part, a number of sites
(including YAhoo mail and the Yahoo search engine) are forbidden so I'll be
getting it slo-mo.

Greg

Greg--

I think it'll probably be...interesting over a modem, but it can be
done.  You probably will have a small screen size, and you won't have
your fingering questions answered, but you should at least be able to
hear and see.  Never used WMP before, but RealPlayer and Quicktime
pretty much work that way too.  Now the _big_ problem might be the
bandwidth available to the ATP server, but fortunately there are far
fewer Television fans than, say, Eagles fans...
