Show floor video: Webex lets you collaborate across platforms
Filed under: Macworld, Software, Video
So let's say you've got a Panther machine on your DSL connection with a firewall, and another computer across town running Windows 98 on a dual-ISDN connection, but you really need to control the Mac from the PC. No dice, right? According to Webex, this might just be possible,* although your experience won't be a zippy thrill-ride.

Webex uses a subscription-based tool to allow remote access across computers, and at Macworld they were talking about Mac-to-PC friendliness. Scott had a chat and wound up with pricing (it's as cheap as $10.35/month), a website (pcnow.com), and the aforementioned horrific scenario of connectivity. Oh, and they've got iPhone compatibility of a sort, just be aware of the limitations.

*In theory, Webex engineers say a 56k connection will allow connectivity. The specs also provide compatibility with Panther and Win98 on the low end. Note I said "low end" which means the performance won't be anything close to a high-speed connection and some more current OS'es.

Full video explanation after the jump.

Found Footage: Meredith Viera licks MacBook Air
Filed under: Cult of Mac, MacBook Air

Well, here's something you don't see everyday. This is Meredith Viera on the Today Show pretending to lick a MacBook Air. Ironically enough, NBC is the owner of the Today Show. Al Roker, the technology person he is, informed the viewing audience that if you want the SSD option for the Air, you'll be "paying a bit more."
