I did a little googling and poking around on Apple's site and found 
nothing, so please bear with me if this is something I should have 
found but didn't.

Since moving to iCloud, what's the story regarding Back to My Mac and 
machines which can't use it?  The desktop in one of our offices is an 
older iMac which cannot go any further than Snow Leopard.

I used to use Back To My Mac to pull up that machine's desktop or file 
shares from my other machines elsewhere.  Since MobileMe is dead, 
though, that machine no longer shows up as an available share (or 
vice-versa - the iCloud-connected machines aren't visible to that one, 
either).

Is Back To My Mac for a machine which can't go beyond Snow Leopard just 
dead and over with?

Is my only alternative (short of replacing that machine, which is in 
the works eventually) to go with something like Slink 
<http://slinkware.com>  ? Anyone here used it?

Thanks!
