The other part this is an "RM recommendation" to "Upgrade Internet Browser to Internet Explorer 5.5".
Quite a few things about this seem very Windows centric... </SNIP>
Interesting, since one of their techi big cheeses specifically told me NOT to upgrade, but stay with V4 of I.E. after asking if they thought it worthwhile upgrading.
To be honest I am rather less than happy about the whole thing. (Especially after talking to Richard Selwyn from BECTa.) Effectivly it appears that we are likely to get a highly restrictive (and MS centric) Intranet as a replacement for an Internet connection. With even the "you won't have to pay for it" part being suspect. So far as RM's technical department are concerned they are very much in my bad books over reporting that I was unable to support what I had said to the head teacher, through the senior education officer. In a some direct communication I supposedly had with RM. When the only person I have talked to at RM admitted they were completly out of their depth and were not actually a "techie". -- Mark Evans St. Peter's CofE High School Phone: +44 1392 204764 X109 Fax: +44 1392 204763
