Hi Mark!

It's a piece of cake for me to get my home computer's screen on my work PC,
since I have a cable modem.  In fact, sometimes the only time I have to
write events is from work. ;)

As I mentioned, I use pcAnywhere

Cheers!

To bring up your home-PC screen on the internet,
I would envision the need to first call ECS and enter
a macro which set PHONE-INTERFACE-C to RESET (to hangup),
set PHONE-INTERFACE-C to DISCONNECTED, and execute a
command which trigger an ISP dialup (?).
