    You got to be kidding me!? You need the JVM for the PC Users while the other OS do not?

    Georgeo,

    Where are you located? It is not yet 1730 EST and you have posted tomorrow at 0547! Or is your server located in SE Asia? :-)

    I got clarification from our Live Meeting team. What I've listed as system requirements are for the browser console Meeting Client (formerly known as the java console.) This console runs on a java applet. For example, when a user attempts to access Live Meeting using a Mac, they are pushed to the "Browser Console." A new user to Live Meeting who has not seen the Native Windows interface may not realize that they were in this separate "Browser Console." That console has a completely different look and feel.

    Aslo this is from Mary Slavin with Microsoft Live Meeting Technical Support.

    "The information regarding the Sun JVM or other pre-installed jvm is related to the Browser Console version of the software (or java version). This Browser Console is for users on Mac or Solaris, or for those users running Windows but have 1) no admin priviledges on their machines 2) a firewall that is preventing the installation of ActiveX Controls needed to run the Native Console.

    Most users entering our events are entering via the Native Console. "

    Hope this helps in understanding the system requirments I posted above.
