Jim --

To add a bit to what Larry said, you can run networked SDR and Winquake
without having the Winquake machine on all the time, but it takes a bit of
effort on your part when you start the Winquake machine.

You need to set up two configurations for SDR (one networked and the other
not) and be able to switch between them.  When you turn the Winquake
machine on, you then go to the SDR machine and start the networked SDR
configuration and copy event files to the Winquake machine.  When you are
ready to turn off the Winquake machine, you go to the SDR machine and
switch SDR back to the non-networked configuration so it will save event
files to its local hard disk.

I did this for over a year (for other reasons I leave my Winquake machine
on all the time now), and used DOS batch files to change the configurations
back and forth.  If you are interested, I can give more details.
