- Pieter mentioned UltraVNC which is his preferred method of remote control, even over xp's Remote Desktop. Now if that is the case then UltraVNC must be very souped up performance wise.

Remote desktop/Terminal Services has always given us better performance, unfortunately its just limited to xp and W2k machines. |
