Well I've watched the first coding turorial and I understand it! And...I have no watched two or three SL building You Tube tutorials, which makes it all seem a lot less fearsome than I thought.I am faiirly certain I can mock up a few chair workshops and some chairs some techniques some background and a seminar room with a a presentation screen with real pics...
However it is going to be very laborious... Ive also odered the book
"Introduction to Linden Scripting" though it seems to have some poor reviews - maybe it will be a good reference, as far as I can make out so far it seems that we actually have to code inside the SL browser - which makes me feel a bit claustrophobic.. oh well ever onward.. though I 'd like to be able to see the wood for the trees..

I have bought a brand new laptop to do this work ( a Toshiba C650) which has a nice spec and a reasonably large screen but SL renders like a gameboy ATM... I have fond memories of an earlier Toshiba; in 1986 I had a Tosh T3100 which was the first ever portable laptop - it was £2000 and had a pre windows orange plasma screen - I ran Lotus 123 and quickbasic in DOS on it and was as proud as punch...
