Note:
For the installation of the software you need administrator authorization on the
target computer.
Several applications running parallelly, reduce the performance and operability.
especially customer applications, exchanging standard system components
(drivers) in order to improve their own performance, may have a strong influence
on the communication performance or even render normal use impossible.
Operation under virtual machines such as Vware Workstation 6/ MS Virtual PC is
not possible.
Onboard graphics card solutions reduce the system performance by up to 20%
and cannot be recommended.
Operation with notebooks in current-saving mode may lead, in individual cases,
to communication problems.
