Well, it is handy. Not cheap. $180 per year. And it does apparently work flawlessly. My biggest problem is that WXP decides randomly that it doesn’t want to communicate with the outside world any more. Sometimes nothing but a reboot will make it start again. That’s not gotomypc’s fault. But, when I want it to do it’s magic and it don’t, guess who gets the blame. Not Microsoft for it’s hunk of junk. Will I lose this capability when I move my “shop” to Linux?
