[Athen] ATHEN-Screen Enlarging Software

[Ron Stewart]

I don't have Connie's email at hand, so don't bash me because I am
suggesting a Dolphin product.  They have always had the best network support
in their products, that is what originally drew a lot of IT folks, like me,
to them when we were first fighting with Windows NT.  J

 

Connie is this a short term issue or a long term issue.  Dolphin SuperNova
has pretty complete support for a client-server based system and remote
terminal clients of several flavors.  The reason I am suggesting this is
that you can get a 30 day download.  Otherwise given that this is such a
specialty application I would probably try the free stuff first, since you
already have something that is working for the student.

Hi Connie!

I don't know what aspects of ZoomText the student might need (other than the
zoom), but you might try some of the freeware programs out there.  I like
DesktopZoom

.portable.V1.3.html

 

Izoom isn't free but you might want to try it http://www.issist.com

Can anyone recommend a Screen Enlarging program that will work with Windows
Server 2003?  We currently are using ZoomText and are looking at some work
arounds so that the student that is in a Network Admin class can access the
screen by emulating the Windows Server application on a PC.  I would be most
appreciative of any solutions that you might have.

 

Sincerely,
