Re: Application Fonts on SBS Server rather than workstations

Not sure whether this is possible.  But if it is, at first blush 
methinks it would make things SLOWER.  Each station would be at the 
mercy of the network and the SBS's ability to serve up the fonts, 
possibily to several stations at once.  As it is now, all that font 
access is local to each station, at local disk I/O speeds.

Am I missing something here?
