[TenTec] One Plug under Linux

[Dudley Hurry]

Steve,

I have found that trying to run realtime devices in a virtual world 
rather disappointing..   There will always be some latency running under 
a virtual, since you are running one OS inside another..    The 
VNC/Skype combo is about as close to actual Realtime as you can get..  I 
like running the Skype over RIP in OnePlug..  


73,
