Chris, Can you tell us a bit about the setup your average participant uses? What sort of PC? What sort of connection speed? Chuck Severance now works for U-M and has a Polycom videoconferencing unit in the basement of his house. He shares a cable modem connection using a consumer grade router and regularly "meets" with colleagues in Ann Arbor or around the world with very good results. He says more and more folks are getting Polycom units in their private offices to do likewise. /rich >I'd like to hear from anyone who is currently doing videoconferencing, >regarding > what system you're using, where you have it located, how much it's used, the > costs involved, etc. We're just starting to look into it.
