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.
