You could fire up the script, run in in the background, sending the 
output to a file.  Then when you get back to computer1, tail the output 
file.

Specifics of background processes and output redirection may be found in 
the man page of the shell you're running (ksh, bash, csh...)

'man tail' for information on the tail command.

Yes, but you've got to do a little leg work (as noted in question #1 :) )
