I use netmeetings remote desktop... as I don't have XP pro, and most of my machines run 2000. I've never used XP pro's remote desktop, hows the quality? With netmeeting's it's choppy and the colors are all off. And this VNC you speak of, hows that? Do you use RealVNC?
Over a LAN RDC is pretty good, a bit slow with the inital loading (You can disable backgrounds for faster loading) and sometimes it gets colors wrong, but not in a major way.

Well I'll show you what net meeting does.
most colors are off at all times. And... just to see what would happen, I tried to play UT 2004 through netmeeting... but it didn't display the game, it just showed a window that said ut2004.exe at the top, taking up the whole screen, but it couldn't display the game itself. Any idea if any of these other programs could in fact display games or things that cause screen resolution to change on the fly?
Romote Desktop is a very ugly and unstable thing.,
In one word, it SUCKS!
Try to get Radmin, the finest program of that kind.
Problem Exists Between Keyboard And Chair.
RDP is awesome. Performance on it is excellent, because it doesn't actually transfer any images, just instructions for drawing. The local client uses that information to draw stuff natively using its own widgets.
So, is XP's remote desktop greatly improved over the remote desktop included with netmeeting?
well look at the picture I posted earlier... that is a desktop viewed though netmeeting. As you can see moving the mouse around created a trail of color...
The distib is 15 megs, and the full java is around 100...
Full java you say... I think my dell has the full install. My mini... still has MS JVM..... heh.... which means everything else I have would also have that.

Any of these Mac and PC compatible?

I guess Netscape won't use their own code... And AOL needs to stop using IE, and AOL should use their netscape gecko engine... not IE's.
I also like ther HTTP connection that it has. Works great if you need to work on something remotely and don't have the client. Hell, even works on 95.
VNC has that only problem is it uses the fucking java runtime
15MB you say??
