Yeah, they should just support the RDP we already have. It would be even neater 
if you could connect from a mac laptop, but that might be a bit much to ask for.

  I have to say over all sa to go has been a really good system maintenance 
tool if nothing else.  I have found it a bit sluggish even running on my own 
machine but I still use it over Jaws some times when doing some tasks.  For 
example if I want to watch a movie a lot of the time the Video protection and 
jaws fights but System access works every time.

   

  I also suggest it for remote stuff and I only hope that they continue to 
improve it.  It would be nice to see a good scripting language soon.

  Subject: Using SA to Go for remote desktop access

   

  All,

   

  Just a little trick I stumbled across recently. I needed to perform some file 
permission maintenance on a remote machine which didn't have any screen reader 
software installed. I went to Remote desktop on my workstation and logged into 
the remote machine. Once connected, I pressed windows+r to get the popup dialog 
and then entered www.satogo.com and pressed enter. In a few seconds, I had 
speech prompting me to press alt+r to complete the install. I logged into my SA 
account (which is optional) and was able to use SA on the remote machine to get 
the file maintenance done. The response was just a touch sluggish but not bad 
at all. 

   

  Just thought I would pass that along.
