- If you are using an HP host machine, you might want to look at HP SharedX.
- The new B.04.00 release of 700/RX software includes SharedX as a downloadable
- extension to the server; this allows a 700/RX to "send" a window to other
- displays (any X display can "receive" the window). You will still need to
- purchase SharedX software to run on the HP host, as well as right-to-use
- licenses for each "sender" (maybe just one in your case). Your HP sales rep
- should be able to provide more information.

- Hope this helps!
