This part has been causing me issues, I can best describe it as trying to achieve consitency across the three machines/locations. 

I cannot guarantee network access. Currently use 6 different passwords per user across the systems. Have multiple; clients pulling email from the net, sets of bookmarks, sets of active files and OS versions.

Thanks for this I'll check it out.

No need for 3D. Though if I can use the graphics in the systems for some benefit I would like to.
