Nowhere on that link could I find how much it costs to use, AFTER the free 15 minutes. Typically, any company that isn't up front about their pricing should be approached very carefully. Personally, I wouldn't type ANY of my personal data on someone else's computer or to a location I couldn't control. -- Gene Y. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: discuss-unsubscribe(a)openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: discuss-help(a)openoffice.org

Besides not revealing their price model, I also could find who they are and where they are. I would call this site suspicious.

Seems that "Sjefferies" is pretty enthusiastic about spreading the ooanywhere.com word. One can only wonder if Sjefferies is tied to ooanywhere.com, or is just a new user... <http://www.google.com/search?q=Sjefferies+%2Booanywhere.com&complete=0&hl=en&filter=0> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: discuss-unsubscribe(a)openoffice.org For additional commands, e-mail: discuss-help(a)openoffice.org

It was a mixed bag. First - tried to run from FireFox 3 under Ubuntu 9.10 64bit...that didn't work, the ooAnywhere server tried to install a package to the browser - which failed to load. No real suprise there the 64bit part gets lots of browser add-ons. Second - tried FireFox using 32bit OpenSuse 11.1 - that prompted an error message from ooAnywhere server that the configuration is not supported at this time - it was a Java problem...yeah, yeah - OpenJDK isn't good enough>???? Third - 32bit Windows 7 and Fire Fox 3.5...the ooAnywhere server installed an add-on to the browser, no problem. Then launched the remote session...actually much more responsive then I expected. With only 15 minutes of time to play - Tried a quick Writer file..just text, that worked. - Tried to create a Base file....well, it did that - I could not actually get the database to 'connect' from the remote session. - After my time was up I copied the files created from the remote server to the local machine...hey, real ODF files that work here. No idea what these folks are going to need to charge, but my curiosity is piqued. Drew
