Are you sure that Sony has discontinued Virtuoso/Soloist? The last I heard they
had bunded the two programs under the new tradename of SANS. Tandberg (aka
SANAKO) also markets entirely software-based systems. In addition, there area
dozen other virtual digital lab systems to choose from. I am curently editing an
IALLT monograph that provides a comprehensive comparative evaluation of the
majority of them. It will be about three months before the book is published,
but if you can wait I'm sure it will be well worth it. Jack
