Sorry Tom,
 
 We don't use Read 180, just SRC and SRI. All I did for those was to complete one windows installation and copy the program folders. All the files are right there. Which is great because the installation takes forever, which is odd considering the folders are about 30mb. I do the same thing for windows clients too. Actually I put them all on a server and just let em run it from there, seems to be the way my boss likes to do all the apps. Back to Read 180 though, what it the difference between it and SRC?

Oh come on, the drama is what makes life worth living.

So Levi -- Scholastic, you have it working on K12LTSP??? Do you have
Read180 working too? I would really be interested in a little how-to or
something. I can get everything BUT Read 180 to work over Terminal
Services (it's killing me but it works).
