This gives the advantage of having a fully Windows based machine for easy astro compatibility and processing in 1 spot and Remote Desktop is client agnostic these days, iOS/Android/Linux (aswell as Win10) can all connect with near identical results.

The machine cost Under $400AUD and has 8 USB ports, Wifi/Gbit LAN and SSD, it removes the need for ASIAIR and its lock down to ZWO only products.

Shoot me a PM if you wanna see it in action I can do a teamviewer runthru.
Okay.. that is another approach that I never even knew existed...

Could I get away with something as cheap as this one?

Although, may not have enough USB ports to do what I want...

I'll send you a PM shortly... thankyou for another option...
