    Has anyone ever heard of this product? It is supposed to be like Microsoft Terminal Services.

    I've never heard of it. I have heard of VNC, though. What is it? Who makes it?

    My guess is that we are talking about VPN.

    Its pretty cool... it allowed me to freak the hell out of my one of my roommates, when I logged onto the viewer to see my computer when I was in the library once.

    I noticed he was using it, so I opened up Word, and started typing cryptic messages that showed up automatically on the screen at home... he swore my computer was possesed, and vowed never to use it again.

    But... I've yet to find a REAL practical use for it... besides e-mailing documents (that I forgot to print out from home) to myself and then printing it out wherever I am.

    It would be cool if you could access mp3's on a remote computer, or somethin....

    Are you talking about VNC? If so, why can't you?

    you can access them, but from my experience it doesn't play on the remote computer's speakers.

    Of course, your home computer's speakers will be blasting away, probably scaring the hell out of everyone that's still at home.
