We use the Satellite at our office.. We have a 5 user license which was
around 5k I think.. The courses are good, I have gone through a few. You
have to tape them because it is impossible to sit in front of it during the
hours it shows. You have to purchase the course materials so that you can
follow along, and each course that I have bought has been $150.  I don't
think you can do the labs (if any) because you won't necessarily have the
setup that is required. I don't know if you can get the lab stuff if you
have the necessary software and hardware configuration.

Also, if you are looking at a course of study so that you can get certified
in an area, not all of the courses that are suggested are on Satellite..
Some are some aren't, so you will still have to pay for another course..

I too will be talking to the people at COMMON to see if there is more that
can be done.

All in all, I like it, but you still need to understand some of the
additional costs and which courses are taught.

Charly,

I'm going to give this a SERIOUS evil eye next month at Common...I know
they did a short presentation for the LUG luncheon in San Diego and it
looked really good, but I've just not had the time to persue it further...
