I don't know if Java appletts are enabled but I do know that the remote 
desktop client is not available on any of the school computers, if I 
were to do VNC I'd have to be able to get into a graphical mode since 
I'd rather have a program with the GUI.

I've explained to my History teacher that if I cannot get the program to 
run on the school's computer I'll just give him a CD with the program on 
it so he can at least try it at home.
