Paul, Since its free to mathematica customers, shouldn't it be possible to tape it and host it on something like google video? I know they have a pay-per-view type of service, but I don't know if they have a password-protected service. I'm thinking something on the order of: a) users calling mathematica with your key/receipt/proof-of-purchase b) getting a password for downloading these videos via google video. That way, it would be a lot more convenient/informative for those of us who would like to attend one of these seminars but for whatever reason cannot. Its not quite equivalent to being there, but its an acceptable alternative. Ed
